F1 25 includes the full official FIA Formula 1 Championship calendar, allowing fans to race on iconic circuits. To maximize performance, however, players need the right custom car setup to gain crucial tenths of a second per lap.
One of the most popular tracks, especially at the start of a new EA Sports F1 game, is the season opener. For the 2025 calendar, the first race has been moved from Bahrain to Australia. If you’re looking to kick off your F1 25 season strong, here’s the best car setup for Albert Park Circuit.
F1 25: Every Car Setup, Explained
Car setups might look complicated in F1 25, but not once you know what they do!
Best Australian GP Setup in F1 25
The Australian Grand Prix is a street circuit, though less technical than others. It includes several long, high-speed straights and challenging corners where strong acceleration is key to gaining an edge over opponents. Here’s the best car setup to dominate Australia in F1 25.
Best Aerodynamics Settings
- Front Wing Aero: 23
- Rear Wing Aero: 15
In F1 25, cars have noticeably less front-end grip compared to the previous title, leading players to understeer when navigating corners on the Melbourne circuit and making car rotation more challenging. To improve handling, setting the Rear Wing to 15 enables smoother, more manageable turns, while a Front Wing value of 21 helps maintain maximum speed on the track’s long straights.
Best Transmission Settings
- Differential Adjustment On Throttle: 75
- Differential Adjustment Off Throttle: 45
Similar to the previous game, F1 25 uses a high On Throttle Differential Adjustment value and a low Off Throttle value. Combined with the Aero setup, this helps improve rotation at lower speeds. Although cornering is limited in Australia, making the most of these moments is crucial for regaining time during acceleration after braking.
Best Suspension Geometry Settings
- Front Camber: -3.50°
- Rear Camber: -2.00°
- Front Toe-Out: 0.00°
- Rear Toe-In: 0.10°
In F1 25, the ideal Suspension Geometry setup for Australia (and most tracks) is to set all Camber and Toe values to their minimum. Increased negative camber and toe-in can enhance grip and stability, but at the cost of increased tire wear and drag. The game favors reduced values to preserve tire life, improve straight-line speed, and maintain consistent handling.
Best Suspension Settings
- Front Suspension: 41
- Rear Suspension: 1
- Front Anti-Roll Bar: 1
- Rear Anti-Roll Bar: 3
- Front Ride Height: 21
- Front Ride Height: 48
In F1 25, setting the Front Suspension to maximum and the rear to minimum improves braking stability and front-end responsiveness, while allowing the rear to better absorb bumps. Lower-balanced Anti-Roll Bar values help maintain stability on straights without compromising cornering, and a low ride height increases aerodynamic grip and overall stability without sacrificing speed.
Best Brake Settings
- Front Brake Bias: 50%
- Brake Pressure: 100%
Using minimum Front Brake Bias and maximum Brake Pressure is ideal for tracks like Melbourne with heavy braking zones, as it allows for later braking and improved corner entry. The game’s more forgiving brake model makes it a viable choice, offering better rotation and stopping power without significant drawbacks.
Best Tire Settings
- Front Right Pressure: 29.5 psi
- Front Left Pressure: 29.5 psi
- Rear Right Tyre Pressure: 20.5 psi
- Rear Left Tyre Pressure: 20.5 psi
For tire pressures in F1 25, it’s recommended to set the Front Left and Right values to maximum to reduce rolling resistance and improve tire durability over long, demanding races. Meanwhile, setting the Rear Left and Right pressures to minimum helps enhance traction and rear-end stability, making the car easier to handle, especially during acceleration. Although lower rear pressures can lead to slightly higher temperatures over time, they help prevent the tires from overheating too quickly.
