With the lower down force settings I do see a small improvement in top speed down the straight of approximately 1mph, which is worth a fraction of a second of a second, but any advantage is quickly lost in the corners of the third sector!
I have been playing with down force though but only lowering the rear...
10 Lap comparison saw a best lap for me of 1:31.026 with the down force at 130/100
The same run with my newest settings 150/130 saw a best lap of 1:30.803 with 7 laps in the run being quicker than your lower down force setup ;) For reference my actual best lap with this setup is a 1:30.620.
Test runs were made in Free run, its easier to understand what is going on without jostling for position.
Maintaining momentum in the S gives a really good opportunity to overtake into T7 and make it stick through T8 and more down force lead to a faster third sector which in turn gives a faster overall lap time when running in clear air.
Thanks for the feedback, it is always interesting to see what people think, I do understand that the tune doesn't work for everyone so like to try out any changes posted to form my own opinion and give some feedback myself :)
