What do teams do to adapt to different fuel specs aside from attempt to remap engines to suit different specifications or brands of fuel?

That's about all there is to do. Apart from achieving ideal engine performance, it then also comes down to how teams adapt their strategies since higher ethanol fuels result in higher fuel consumption, so that can alter quite a lot if one team runs different championships.
