Car - McLaren Season 2 with no break assists, tire wear on, fuel OFF (cuz the other cars don't seem to be affected), racing line on.
This setup is based off of
Bram Hengeveld setup with some tweaks.

Here is my other setup that I used in Season 3 in the RBR car during practice. It is not the same as the McLaren set up at all. Give it a try if you are in season mode. I finished P3 with a time of 1:23.058 in practice. I was finally able to get thru Sector 3 faster than the computer. Sector 2 is still a mystery on how the AI cars can go .75 to 1.00 seconds faster. The final chicane is the difference in the lap. I attacked the curbs since my ride height was higher and didn't spin out. Here is the RBR season 3 setup.
Car - RBR, Season 3, no break assist, tire sim on, no fuel sim, racing line ON, abs FULL, TC FULL, autoshifting, Mad Catz 2 steering wheel+pedals on the Xbox 360. This is my setup that I came up with.

Practice (shortened weekend) set fast lap on final lap of practice with 1:23.058. Had to share since I know so many come here looking for answers to this track. Also I have more laps on this track and Monaco than any other. At least 1,000 laps at this point maybe more.
Practice: 1:23.058
Qualifying time: 1:22.925 put me P4 for the race
Race time best lap: 1:23.283 - Finished P5 after it seemed like some of the cars drove the entire race without a pit and when they did pit they had 2 second pit stops.
This track is not that hard but in the game I am pretty sure unless you put the settings on Beginner or something that there is no way to win in the season mode even with the RBR team. :-( I guess CM did this so there can be no perfect seasons or something????
I have been tracking my lap times using Excel spreadsheets for Year By Year comparisons and the RBR seems to be faster than the McLaren so far. Easier to drive that is for sure. I have yet to run a Ferrari so maybe I will switch teams in a few years just for a go at it. All my lap times in Practice, Qualifying and Race have been faster except for this track where in the McLaren I was able in the race to run the 1:22.898.
