This is a bug! I saw this problem first with the original F1 an Nuerburgring. The suspension gets stuck in upper position and comes, springs back, when you drive over a more bumpy surface beside the track!
With the hard springs of the F1-02 on the bumpy track of Le Mans the problem doesn´t appear!
It´s a software and maybe a physical-model problem and not caused by setup!

1. The suspension stays in uppest position, when max compressed by downforce or a jump and doesn´t come back! This should be a bug in spring or damper handling.

2. The spring is only defined by "spring-constant". Maybe it is simulated as linear! Unusual and not realistic. Most springs are "progressive".
