Suzuka...

Fullthrottle till the first right turn, you brake at the end of the red part of the driving lane..down to 3rd gear, full throttle... for the S-turn, I managed the first left right full throttle, for the second left right, look at the video, i'm full throttle, but i just hitted the brake a bit to slow down the car... full throttle all way that long left turn... now you reached what was for me the hardest part of that track...the first right, can be easily managed full throttle no brake... the problem, well my problem, was to manage to place the car in the right line for the sharp right just after, at 400+ kmh... it sucks... cause the track is really narrow, and if you go out, DQ...
Once you manage to get a good line after the first full throttle right turn, hit the brake for a 2nd gear sharp right... full throttle... 1st reference time; 28.2 or less

you reach the hairpin, easy to manage, once you pass the right turn hit the brake till you see smoke from the tires, then full throttle... you shouldbe around a high 1st low 2nd gears....full throttle for the long right... then you reach a left, left turn... the first one, hit the brake down to the 4th gear, as soon a you are in 4th, full thottle for a second, then hit the brake down to the 2nd, as soon you are in 2nd, full throttle till the chicane...
2nd reference time..52.5 or less...

for the chicane, there is no reference I used for when to brake...I braked around halfway of the red part of the driving line, just before the bridge...
You can try to shorcut a bit the chicane, but you'll be airborne a couple of time... still doable as you can see on the video...
As soon you start to enter the left turn of the chicane, full throttle till the finish line...
My First lap was very slow on the video, but my second was near to be perfect... for Reference, 1st lap below 1:05.3 is better...

For the second lap, repeat, but for the first right turn, since you reach it at a higher speed than the first lap, brake just before the end of the red part of the driving line...

Go fast,faster than youve ever been before

If you just want bronze this is what I did. On the first run go a little easier to learn how the car handles around the track to get a reference time (even doing this I failed a few time). Then use the ghost to better your time.

It is hard and it's really about learning the track. But after doing so many laps you'll know how fast you can go in the corners and you'll probably know the circuit back to front.

It is just because I think its easier to see what other people think and it might just be my driving style

Steering wheel made all the difference in the world for me!!

Not to start a new thread. Is it possible to complete this challenge with silver or even gold using ds3 or 6axis?

YES to a few.

 

[Phoenix]

Use the force

Even the force can't handle the X1...

To OP, its all about pushing the car to its limits and beyond, you can always go faster in every corner.
I made it with a G27 wheel (gold on all 3), no way I would have got it with a DS3.

Good luck on your challenge.

Delete game data, re-install up to v1.07 IIRC, glitch all 3 for gold. once done, save game data and re-install back to spec 2

Job done

You cant. Your v 1.0 or 2.04 you cant get anything else.

You can play any version if you downgrade.

It's actually version 1.10 which lets you glitch the vettel challenges.

 

[Disco_Mikey]

1.07 was the first version you could get out of nurb, presumed that was for them all...

 

[loftylyons46]

Practise so I've been told but it didn't work for me but then I'm not that good a driver

mmm... might be a good idea to save on a £132 memory stick first

 

[quavers]

where is a good cheap memory stick?

 

[FlyinHawaiian77]

Oh man this challenge took me well over 40 attempts. And still only managed to get a Bronze medal. The video definitely helped though.
