I would say it is possible at tracks like Bahrain or China where the computer is painfully slow for some reason. It helps if you use a much higher downforce set up, but of course there's no weather forcast in the game to advise you to do so, so you're pretty screwed at Monza or Montreal if it rains.
I haven't done it yet but it is in the pile of upcoming projects https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showpost.php?p=3228274&postcount=12OK, but has anyone actually done it?
