Track Overview
The Chinese Grand Prix at the Shanghai International Circuit returns in F1 25 as one of the most technical circuits in the game. With a mix of long straights, tricky traction zones, and unique corner combinations, mastering Shanghai is key to a fast lap time and strong race performance.
Race Strategy
A medium to hard strategy is ideal for China and its high tyre wear. The hard tires last longer but are slower, so you’ll need to focus on managing your pace. Pitting around lap 15 or 16 on the hard tyre, or around lap 11 if you started on the medium tyre is ideal.
