Description
"Maybe it's because I'm black" - Lewis Hamilton

Kept this one nice and simple, as over tuning it wasn't working or was making the car struggle in random places on the track. So I focused mainly on turn in and stability on the fast bends. I think I pulled it off!
You might be able to get away with trimming a little more wing off the front and rear, I wasn't brave enough to try. Overall traction is good but be extra careful on curbs or you'll have a bad time!
This setup will no way fix what power unit issues you may have, I can only fix the corners, not your straight line speed! ;)

I really like the balance of this setup during the race, well done! You've got another subscriber ;)

Just got my first win on 99% difficulty with this setup, mixed conditions helped a lot! Stretched first stint on Super Softs as long as possible then pitted onto Intermediates, told engineer to add +2 on front wing before coming in then dominated the rest of the race. ;)

Finished 14th in a downpoor rain last 12 laps. I was on 7th when i got the pitstop for my Softs. Came in 13th and lost one place after pit going to intermediates. Afterall...a great stable setup. In dry conditions its top-10 place stuff on Expert. Up to Bahrain...for a dry race and new setup!!! Did changed the powerunit parts of the engine.. one was already above 50%, 3 above 40% and one or two around 20% and first powerunit upgrade parts have arived..

Hey, got the 12th in Q1, dropped out in Q2, 15th. Started with a risky one-stop-strategy by starting with medium(White) and switch to soft(yellow). The team suggested me to start with 2-stop strategy starting with super softs, 1st stop another set of super softs and then softs when my last stop is scheduled. But i see rain coming in the 4th quarter of the race...so i thought...could try to take te risk by starting with mediums... Mid race now 12th round pos 10, struggling to hold it for a renault. I loose the most at the straights(ofcourse) but i manage to handle the car very good in de turn sections, espacially with the mediums. I even gain some... question...: Do you drive with a game controller or do you race with steerweelset?

Hey man, that's what I try to aim for on all my setups. Something that will be consistent and easy to manage in the race. Not necessarily looking for the fastest setup over 1 lap but keep general race lap times at a consistent pace. But yeah, the lack of power, even with a brand new Honda engine is really apparent on the type of track.

Feedback After P2. On the SuperSofts 1.39.715 (10th)and there is room for improvement. But engine wear is already on 28%...(Still using unit 1) and i do manual gearing...

Not the most fast setup, but i think i might save one pit stop with this setup. On Soft(Yellow)Tyre wear is very good...what can prevent me from being last on raceday. Started the R&D on the power unit and reduce the costs of it. On straight McClaren looses a lot anyway like in real life. I am in P2 now and hitting 1.40(PS4Controller on PC on EXPERT) Main goal in first season is GAIN RESOURCE POINTS IN P1-2-3...
