Best F1 24 Controller Settings

Calibration

  • Throttle Saturation: 0

Force Feedback

  • Vibration & Force Feedback: On
  • Vibration & Force Feedback Strength: 150
  • On Track Effects: 100
  • Rumble Strip Effects: 90

  • Pit Stop Effects: 50
  • Wheel Damper: 50 (70 if you want a more hardcore feel)
  • Maximum Wheel Rotation: 360 (If you feel like you’re oversteering in many corners, lower it to 290/300)

Best F1 24 Difficulty Settings

Difficulty settings have always been a pain to set up, and the same goes for F1 24. I currently use values between 75 and 90, depending on how familiar I am with a certain track. I used F1Laps to calculate the AI difficulty, and I think it did it pretty well. If you find the AI too easy or too hard, I suggest you move the values by 5 in the desired direction. Once you’re close to the sweet spot, increasing or lowering it by one or two should make it perfect.

That should cover all the essential settings you’ll need to tweak in order to make your F1 24 experience the best it can be. For more guides, tips, and tricks for the newest F1 game, bookmark Twinfinite.
