In F1® racing, quick reactions are crucial, so having a reliable system is essential to reach the top of the podium. Starting with the minimum system requirements is a good foundation. As with many PC games, you may need to adjust your settings to find the right balance between graphics quality and performance that suits your preferences.
When using F1® 24's integrated VR mode, the more powerful your GPU and CPU, the better. A higher amount of VRAM, in particular, can improve the game's visual quality and enhance immersion.
