Alright, alright, let’s talk about them F1 23 race setups, you know, the things them fancy racers use to make their cars go fast. I ain’t no racer myself, mind you, but I heard some things, seen some things, and I’ll tell ya what I know.
First off, what in the tarnation is a race setup anyway? Well, it’s like this, see? You got this here car, right? And it’s gotta go around that track real quick-like. But the track ain’t always the same. Sometimes it’s twisty, sometimes it’s straight, sometimes it’s wet, sometimes it’s dry. So, you gotta fiddle with the car, make it just right for each track and each kinda weather. That’s what they call a setup.

Now, where do you find these setups? Well, some folks, they go to this here “Simracingsetups” website, or they watch them “YouTube” vids. They say them fellas got some good setups, most of the time. But, you know, what works for one fella might not work for another. It’s like cookin’, see? Some folks like it spicy, some folks like it mild. You gotta find what suits your taste.
What kinda things you gotta change in a setup? Oh, all sorts of stuff. You got the wings, them things on the front and back that make the car stick to the ground. You gotta adjust them just so, or you’ll be flyin’ off the track like a scared chicken. Then you got the tires, gotta make sure they got enough air, not too much, not too little. And the suspension, that’s the thing that makes the ride smooth, or bumpy, dependin’ on what you want. And don’t forget the gears, gotta shift ’em at the right time, or you’ll be stuck in the mud.
- Wings: Gotta make ’em just right, so you stick to the ground.
- Tires: Not too much air, not too little.
- Suspension: Make it smooth, or bumpy, your choice.
- Gears: Shift ’em right, or you’re stuck.
Then there’s them driver numbers. I heard tell they get to pick their own numbers, most of ’em. Anything from 2 to 99, ‘cept for number 1. That’s for the champ, see? The best of the best. And they retired number 17 a while back, for some fella, poor soul.
And speaking of champs, that Verstappen fella, he’s somethin’ else, ain’t he? Always winnin’, that one. Heard he won in Las Vegas recently. Them other fellas, they gotta step it up if they wanna catch him.
But back to the setups. It ain’t just about the car, you know? It’s about the driver too. You gotta be smooth, gotta be fast, gotta know when to brake, when to turn, when to gas it. It’s like dancin’, kinda. You and the car gotta be in sync, gotta move together. And that takes practice, lots and lots of practice. You can’t just jump in a car and expect to win. You gotta learn the ropes, gotta get a feel for it.

And another thing, these tracks, they ain’t all the same, like I said. Some of ’em are easy, some of ’em are hard. Some of ’em are long, some of ’em are short. And the weather, oh boy, the weather can be a real pain. One minute it’s sunny, the next minute it’s rainin’. And that changes everything, see? You gotta be ready for anything.
So, how do you find the best setup? Well, like I said, you can look ’em up online, or you can experiment yourself. Try different things, see what works. And don’t be afraid to ask for help. Them racers, they’re a friendly bunch, most of ’em. They’ll give you some tips, if you ask nicely.
And remember, the best setup ain’t always the fastest setup. Sometimes you gotta sacrifice a little speed for a little stability. It’s all about finding the right balance. And most importantly, have fun! It’s just a game, after all. Don’t take it too seriously. Get out there, drive fast, and enjoy yourself.
So, that’s all I got to say about F1 23 race setups. Hope it helps you, whoever you are. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go feed the chickens.
