Developer Notes:
For the Formula 1® 2020 cars, we have made some handling adjustments based on player feedback on the 2019 cars. 2020 Season cars will have less grip in low speed corners, while high speed turns should feel similar to the 2019 Season.

While the 2020 cars’ base performance stats are similar to the 2019 content, you will notice higher lap times due to the low-speed grip tweaks.

Tuning Setups

Based on player feedback from our 2020 Endurance GT and Season 6 ABB Formula E events, we’ve added Tuning Setups - a way to continue tuning your car outside of Special Events.

Install a unique Tuning Setup to improve your Motorsports cars. Tuning Setups are uniquely tailored to each event and, once earned, can be installed on any car within the same Motorsports Series and Season to improve its PR outside of Special Events. Complete Special Events to collect different Tuning Setups!

The first time you install a Tuning Setup on a car, it’s free. Swapping between setups later costs M$. Both Installing and Swapping Tuning Setups takes time, but also awards Principal XP.

Tuning Setups have also been added to the 2020 Endurance GT Cars and the Season 6 ABB Formula E Cars. If you previously completed any Special Events with these cars, you will automatically be given the corresponding Tuning Setup to apply to any car in that Motorsports Season. The Tuning Setup will come with pre-installed steps, based on the number of Tuning Steps you purchased during that Special Event, up to the maximum number of steps for the Tuning Setup.

If you would like any further information, we have created an FAQ here.
