As a rule of thumb in my T/A:
If you run nitrogen I'd run mid to high 30's or low 30's if you run regular air. With regular air, the moisture content expands and contracts to a higher degree with a change in temperature. Pure nitrogen is essentially dry so it doesn't have this effect.

That's been my experience though. The F1 tires on the 1LE are probably much stiffer than what I'm used to so low 30's may be okay. Best to take it to the track and adjust it as you go to see what works. The track temp will also affect what amount of pressure that works best.
