Hello fellow racers,
thanks to all who posted their setups, it´s really appreciated.
I´m on my first year in career mode with virgin and I had major problems with the track in practice and with the setups posted in this thread.
Not saying they are not good or anything, but they don´t seem to work with the virgin car.
So I figured I woud try to alter my setup for suiting my needs.
Mostly the car didn´t turn in well on corners and the gears seemed to be off to the speeds in the corners too.
In general I felt the car was to quick in the corners with too low on the revs so it was difficult for me to maintain a good speed to rev ratio to accelerate out of the corners.
So I started with general setup, the most right on the quick setup menu and reduced the gear ratios to lower speeds.
Now I feel the car kinda does what it should. I´m not blazingly fast on this track now, besides I had a hattrick on the 3 races before and took first place on 2nd difficulty level. I think there is still room for improvement with the car setup and me learning the track.
My times are mostly in the 1.37 to 1.36 area, anyways here is my virgin setup:

It's pretty good, I'm also in first year with Virgin racing I used your setup but changed a couple of things.
Front Wing Angle: 2
Rear Wing Angle: 2
Front Anti Roll Bar: 5
Did a 1:35.105 in practise, it seems like there is still a bit of improvement left.
