[Tuning Expert Advice needed] Endurance Race tuning for AMG Gr3 at Le Mans

[JujUltraSG]

Hello Everyone,

Completely inexperienced in terms of Tuning, I would seek the "experts"'s advice to tune the Mercedes AMG GR3 for Le Mans. I have an endurance race, BOP is on but you can tune your car in order to maximize performance. I've checked the forum but settings I found are not for Le Mans. And this track is so special that requires Top Speed but also handling. I'm lost
Also, for an endurance race (6h - 3 stints of 2h) i believe tire-wear saving will be key. Is tuning also affect tire-wear?

I know tuning is very specific and very much to your own taste or driving style, but i have a good setup that i can start with, it would be fantastic.

Thanks in advance for your help. Cheers!

PS: I have the livery.... but performance is required with good tuning

In your settings, you have "Downforce Level- Front: 400 Rear: 780" for Circuit de la Sarthe, should i reduce downforce?

Yes you may reduce the downforce to what suits you the best, because it is a high speed track and you want less downforce.
