F1 - Car Setups

Hi Guys, I am really enjoying F1 season but was wondering if anyone knew of good car setups for each track or a link to some suggested options? I have obviously tried creating my own but this is a little hit and miss at times and I wanted to compare against some other setups.

If anyone has some setups they can post or a link that would be great


Thanks

Re: F1 - Car Setups

All aids off, traction control set at 1. Manual gears, in-car cockpit view. Brilliant stuff, but tough, even on easy.

There is one aid that is essential IMO and thats the one that points you in the right direction after a spin.

Re: F1 - Car Setups

I was hoping for actual car setups for tracks (i.e down force, gear ratios etc) rather than driving aids.

If anyone has some car race setups they can suggest or a link with anything can someone please post it?

Re: F1 - Car Setups

surely everyone has a different driving style and therefore one persons set-up is not suitable for others??

I play the psp version a lot (spend 4 hours a day commuting on the train!) and have to say that the 'race car evolution' (if that is a feature of the PS3 version) is an excellent tool and does really help you optimise your set-up for each track.

Re: F1 - Car Setups

I was just hoping for basics as the ride heights, down force settings etc that are going to be fairly generic for most drivers per circuit.
