If your hot lap is saved with the performance data your set up can be
grabbed from it!
I was sent a hot lap which I duly looked at. After reviewing its
performance data (from drive options/extract from hot lap). I decided
to try and emulate it. After entering practice I discovered my name
had been changed to that of the person who sent the lap. I checked
the car set up and found that had changed too. Also all of the
settings for race length, skill level etc had been changed. I
restored all of my options and tried this again, getting the same
result. Just to make sure I replaced all of my setups with the
default ones and tried reviewing data from one of my own laps. Sure
enough my setups had come back!
My advice: if you want your setups to remain your own once you have
saved your hot lap go to "load game or hot lap replay" and select
"save hot lap without performance data".

This is REAL old news. The original F1GP did this as well.
It's really quite annoying. Not the fact that you can 'steal' the setup,
but the fact that it also adjusts the other completely UNrelated settings
as well.
