**THIS SETUP HAS BEEN UPDATED WITH MY SEASON 3 SETTINGS!** ((Slightly better tyre wear, improved front end - 0.9s per lap faster on average))

"Suck my balls honey" - Kevin Magnussen 2017

The best I could do as a compromise setup.
Strong through 1st/2nd sector but will struggle with understeer if too early on the throttle going into spoon curve. Increase front wing by one point if you want it to be more pointy in the first sector but don't raise rear wing as this will just generate more understeer in final sector.
If you want the back end to loosen up, add one point of ballast towards the rear but this may upset the car on acceleration at corner exit.
Setup felt good to me, sadly all of my engines are pretty much shafted so lack of power is a REAL struggle now!
Drive it like you stole it!
Let me know how it works out for you.

This was updated with my setup for my 3rd season where I've added a fair few downforce upgrades so I had to make a a bit more oversteery compared to my first season. Lower front tow by 1 click and ballast to 6 and that should calm it down. If backend is still too loose raise rear tow by 1 click :steamhappy:

Works fine for most parts - feels a little on the oversteering side! But great setup to start with! Thx :)

Superb setup, great job man. I've been using your setups for my career all the time but this setup single handedly made japan the most enjoyable track on the calender. Blast to drive
