Spa - dip in the entry to the bus stop chicane

Hi guys,

Wondering if anyone has come across a dip in track at the entry to the bus stop chicane at Spa. It’s right at the turning in point for the entry into the right hander coming off the “ long straight”. It unsettles the car terribly, leading to a lot of oversteer in the middle of the chicane, and often cases me to spin out. I haven’t been able to find a setup change that allows me to attack that corner (increase ride height, soften suspension etc). The only thing that works is if I brake a lot earlier and reduce my entry speed into the first part of the chicane. I didn’t feel this bump in F1 22.

Anyone experienced this or have thoughts on a setup change I could make? I can post my setup if it helps.

🖖🏽

    @Monzstar83 the problem is that Spa in the F1 games and especially the chicane have always been totally wrong, the whole track would have to be renewed in the game
  • Try finding a different line. Bit more to the left or right, whatever works for you. It's not always about setups, sometimes some lines just don't work in some corners

    @Wuffels have tried this also, but the dip is still there. Admittedly I haven’t put enough time on that track to figure it out - I’m sure I’ll find some kind of compromise between line and setup to resolve

  • hi @Monzstar83, I didn't try Spa in F1 23 yet, setup but even more a few seconds video may help to have an idea 😉
