30 May, 2025 – F1 25 has now released for everyone, with the early access period coming to an end.
What's the best F1 25 Bahrain setup? Not long into the season, you move away from the classic locations in Melbourne and Shanghai, heading instead for the deserts in the middle east. To many, it's not considered a traditional track, but the Bahrain GP has become a staple of the F1 calendar over recent years.
The track is focused on long straights and high-speed sweeping corners, so you'll need a different setup to other tracks in best F1 25 setups you can use.
The Sakhir International Circuit was the season-opener for nearly a decade, but moved aside for Australia this year.
With its multiple DRS zones and heavy tyre wear, it is the most popular track for league racing and online lobbies. It's also one where a well-balanced setup can see midfield cars move up the grid and grab some unexpected points.
Best F1 25 Bahrain setup
Bahrain's three DRS zones allow for close following, while its multiple heavy-traction zones lead to massive rear tyre wear.
The first and third sectors feature massive straights, but the middle sector's hairpin and sweeping changes of direction mean you can't just trim your wing like you can in Monza. Bahrain's turn 10 is also the most notorious lock-up corner in the game, so if you are struggling with the braking here we recommend dropping the brake pressure by a notch or two, or moving the front brake bias slightly higher.
We've tested this F1 25 Bahrain setup with both wheel and controller, and over a range of assist levels.
