Bahrain Track Strategy
Now, let’s break down how you’re going to go through each of the turns in the Bahrain Track for F1 24. There are a total of 7 Turns that we’ll be looking at.
Bahrain Track Turn #1
Starting off, you’ll have a straight road ahead of you before the first turn of the Bahrain Track. For this part, you want to go all the way to the eighth gear, heading into the turn at speed. As you go into the turn, you’ll be breaking very late while staying as close to the left curb as possible.
We recommend that you use the 100m board as your brake marker. You’ll be breaking right before it.
As you start braking, navigate your car towards the right curb. Start turning your steering towards the right and go into it the more you release your brakes. This will allow you to smoothly get past the turn.
Right after, there will be another turn that you’ll need to do towards your left in the F1 24 Bahrain track. For this turn, you’ll want to keep your steering wheel flat and barely turn into it. At the same time, make sure that you are close to the left curb.
Bahrain Track Turn #2
After a straight run ahead, you’ll eventually come close to the second turn for the F1 24 Bahrain Track. Here, you want to head as much as you can to the left curb. This is to ensure you can maximize as much of the track as possible.
Again, you’ll be using the 100m board as a guide for braking. Brake right before the board appears.
As you brake go towards the right curb. Slowly start releasing the break as the turn progresses. During this release, start turning your steering wheel harder.
You’ll be using this same turning strategy for any turns you come across throughout the entire Bahrain Track.
After this turn, there will be a mostly straight road with a slight curve. For this part, you’ll want to just go from the left curb to the right curb, and immediately from the right to the left. This will allow you to maximize your time.
Bahrain Track Turn #3
The third turn is mostly the same as the other ones you’ll have gone through on the Bahrain track.
For this turn, you’ll be using the Lenovo board on the left side as a brake marker. You’ll start braking right before the Lenovo board. After that simply go from the left curb to the right.
During the race, if you seem to be having issues with the handling, we’ve got you covered with that too. Check out our Controller Settings Guide for some help with that!
Bahrain Track Turn #4
The fourth turn will follow right after the third one and is the hardest one you’ll have to face on the Bahrain track. For this turn, you’ll be staying close to the right curb before turning.
This turn is very hard so try not to overdo it too much. Also, you will not be going towards the left curb because of the turn right after. So, keep your steering wheel flat as you get past the first curve.
Immediately after, there will be another even sharper turn. Start releasing your brakes and as you do so, turn your steering wheel sharply towards the left. This will allow you to turn right past the curb and successfully get past this turn in F1 24!
Bahrain Track Turn #5
After another straight run on the Bahrain Track, you’ll come across another turn. This turn is fairly straightforward and you’ll be using the general strategy we’ve laid out in this guide for all turns.
Just make sure that you use the 50m board as a marker for braking. Brake a little early right before it and go from the right curb into the left curb.
Right after, there will be a small curve that can throw off some players. We recommend you use the right side of this curb and it’ll allow you to get past this curve fairly easily!
Bahrain Track Turn #6
The sixth turn for the Bahrain Track in F1 24 can be a bit tricky. This is because it starts off with a smooth curve and immediately turns sharply.
So, when you approach this track, we recommend that you line up your steering wheel with the left curb. After that, follow the curb exactly until it starts turning sharply.
When this happens, simply turn from the left curb into the right. Doing so should allow you to get across smoothly.
Bahrain Track Turn #7
The final turn for the F1 24 Bahrain Track is fairly straightforward. Once you see the 100m board, you’ll be heading to the left curb. Start following the curb and turn to the right after you get past the 50m board.
Make sure you turn the steering wheel as you release the brakes for a smooth transition! And with that, you’ve successfully completed the Bahrain Track hot lap in F1 24!
That’s everything you need to know about successfully beating the Bahrain Track in F1 24. Now you know the right setup that you’ll need alongside the strategies that you should use for each turn on the track.
However, this track is not the only challenging one you’ll come across in F1 24. The Jeddah Track can also give you some trouble. Our Jeddah Track Setup + Hot Lap Guide can help you out with that too!
