The Canadian GP track often provides some of the best racing of the season and is certainly one of the best circuits to drive on in F1 22 as well.
In the game, you can create plenty of overtaking moves, such as at the Hairpin, the Wall of Champions, and into Virage Senna. To help you at this exciting venue, hereโs is our track guide to the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in F1 22.

Aerodynamics
The Gilles Villeneuve circuit is one of the fastest on the Formula One calendar, but it also has plenty of corners, too. This isnโt quite like Monza, with there being plenty of braking zones in which you can pull off a good overtaking move, so youโll need plenty of downforce for those corners as well.
As such, we have gone for a more downforce-heavy setup to keep the car planted and allow for good stability when you are throwing the car through some of the faster corners. If you want a bit more straight-line speed, you can, of course, notch the levels down a bit.
Transmission
Canada is a mix of fast, slow, and medium-speed corners. Getting the differential settings right at this circuit will be absolutely key, with the aim also being to protect the tyres as much as you possibly can. Ideally, Canada is a simple, one-stop race, with the semi-street circuit nature of the track meaning that tyre wear is never really a major issue. You will want a more locked differential in the wet to aid with outright traction.
Suspension Geometry
We found with this F1 22 setup, for the suspension geometry, you get a car that handles everything as it should and creates a good balance overall. We have left a bit of leeway, so if you feel like something needs changing, you can do so easily when you get into the setup screen.
Suspension
Suspension is a part of the setup that is a bit more down to you as the driver rather than the track itself. Weโve gone for a relatively neutral setup for our Canadian GP car, which seems to work quite well, and the ride height handles the kerbs and any bumps nicely in both the wet and the dry. Feel free, of course, to adjust to your own wants and needs based on your driving style.
Brakes
With this brake setup in F1 22, you can take on just about any track while predominantly fending off the dreaded lock-ups. We’ve kept the brake bias at 50%-53% for dry and wet.
Tyres
Given the overall lack of tyre wear at the Canadian GP, and the fact that you will want to squeeze a good amount of straight-line speed out of your car, increasing the tyre pressures is something that you can absolutely get away with.
Still, when it comes to wet running, donโt be afraid to lower the tyre pressures a bit. The wet tyres will most likely need to go much further than your dry tyres, and overheating those will cause the wear that you want to avoid.
It might seem like a simple circuit, but Circuit Gilles Villeneuve has its complexities, and it is an absolute blast to drive around. The Canadian GP isnโt the longest race, but it certainly ranks highly for the enjoyment factor once youโve got the best setup.
