TIME: My Q3 time on options was 128.5 And fastest lap of the race was 129.0.

NOTES:
This setup was made to maximize tire wear for the 100% race. the first stint on the options I qualified on wasn't difficult and I managed to go an extra two laps per prime stint to allow the last stint to be done on Options again for a, OPPO strategy. This strategy allowed me to go out on options while everyone else was on primes. This gained me 3 positions at the end of the race allowing me to finish 6th place.

Notes
Playing on xbox 360 with a controller using auto gears and medium traction control all other assists off
1. 28. 7xx on primes
1. 26. 3xx on options

Love this setup. Car feels very stable and I can push the car without having much adverse effect. I'm with Force India and I managed to set a 1:27:320 in Q3 on options. It wasn't a perfect lap, as I made some mistakes in sector 1 and 2. Got the pole on Professional . However, I'm quite inconsistent in race, so I'm happy with the difficulty.

Playing with auto gears, full racing line and all other assists off.

I tweaked the Gearbox

Gear 1: 131 kph
Gear 2: 164 kph
Gear 3: 193 kph
Gear 4: 229 kph
Gear 5: 254 kph
Gear 6: 281 kph
Gear 7: 307kph

Starting my 100% race now, will edit performance in after.

EDIT: Well I'm very inconsistent as far as racing is concerned. New to 100% races . Lost a few places after the first pitstop which I failed to make up.

Fastest lap in race was 1:29:9xx. Pretty disappointing but my inconsistency cost me far more. Although for a Force India, I think I was doing ok for my difficulty.

For those of you who would like an "honest" setup that doesn't exploit the 1-1 setup, here's my attempt. This is my first attempt at a set up, so any suggestions for improvement would be most welcome.

I found this to be a well balanced setup that is fairly gentle on the tyres while still setting a competitive time. In qualifying with rich fuel mix and the DRS open, as well as using KERS off the final corner, you will be bouncing off the limiter by the end of the start/finish straight but I feel this is balanced out in the race by not bogging down 7th gear too much during the race when you may not have DRS available. Cheers!

Dear sinister,

thank you very much for this setup, I tried it today and it was excellent
I qualified easily for Q3 on hard tyres and got pole position in a 1:25.5xx or so
I drive Lotus as well, first race of the season, used Fuel Map: Mix 3 and AI is on Expert difficulty, ABS is off, TCS medium and manual gears.
Hope for the 100% race that the tyres won't wear that much.
Anyway, I enjoy that you don't use this extreme values as 1 and 12 and so, I find that kind of unrealistic and the feeling with your setup was quite nice

Best
David

 

[David Frey]

Dear sinister,

I've done the 100% race now and I was really impressed, I won the GP with around 15 sec before Raikkönen and around 30 sec before Alonso. The setup is well balanced for every part of the race, the car handling at the beginning with much fuel is great and if you change a little bit the points where to enter the turns you can drive great at the ending as well.
Tyre wear is okay I would say, the last 6-7 rounds on worn hard tyres are a bit difficult, but if you shortshift the first gear and if you are careful at the last combination before the straight where the rear wants to break out then you will be able to drive fine lap times.

Thanks again for the setup

David

@Wouter Gosseye

I have changed the video link in your post

There seems to be a new system in place, which I am trying to confirm as I write this. It seems to remove the in-line pop-out video player.

If the new system is permanent, I will re-write the video adding tutorial posted in the sticky thread.

Cheers
