F1 2010 Monte Carlo - Monaco (Dry)

Maybe you were hitting a kerb?

I love the track but i keep finding a massive bump on the inside of casino and flying into the wall.

I'll give that setup a try Skyline, thanks a lot.

EDIT: Low 17's? Man, I can't get past the low 18's. I almost made a 1:17,5 but then I messed up in the final sector.

Nah I'm not hitting a kerb. I easily spin out at turn 7 and the Nouvelle Chicane. But got better at correcting oversteer now so it's all good!
However, there is a glitch (I'm on PS3) just before turn 15. If you go too close to the wall, the car just goes flying into the air like Webber, which is really annoying as it almost cost me the race.

Its similar to the OP's set up but I changed I few things for my driving style and got 1:16:016 on career mode, before I couldn't even get past the high 1:17's

 

[Wouter Rens]

And what car are you driving?

 

[Daniel Triana]

oh a redbull and a williams the redbull was obviously faster but i still managed a 1:16:6XX with the williams

I love this track but I'm horrible at it. I've been using time trial as practice and the best i did was a 1:19:XXX using Victor's setup, and I have abs on and traction on full (gearbox auto) no brake assist as I still haven't gotten the hang of using my controller on the pc.

Can anyone post a video or something explaining how to take each corner and at what speed to take it at because I follow the racing line but consistently crashing :facepalm: into barriers on turn 3, 4,8, the left hander after 10, the right hander after 11, sometimes on 12 and 13, and almost always on the right into 16. :frown:

I've been racing on this track for the past 6 months practicing everyday and yet I still suck at this. After the first 3 months I decided to turn the brake assist off and now I feel more in control. However, I'm still not able to post decent lap times.

Praying that more practice can help. ray:
Any help anyone?

The time bellow was achieved in time trial mode with Mercedes-Gp. The car is slightly oversteering at corners' exits but it has very nice turn in speed and allows you to make some critical through corner brakings without understeer. It s a PC lap time, with xbox 360 controller, all assists were turned off and the lap time is set to 1:14:069

Why is everyone running so much wing angle here...the cars are already set with the high downforce package...i run my wings at like 4 in the front 3 on the back

 

[Andrew Bortz]

Hey not everyone does but think im the only posted setup that runs a 1/1 wing for Monaco.

 

[Parko77]

My platform is a PS3 and i too have noticeable frame rate reduction at turns 15 and 16. Very distracting and hinders the 'rhythm' of the lap. I have been waiting for a patch to be released that addresses this issue.

 

[STALLION01]

good setup Blackfox! i managed a 1:17.300 in my Lotus in season 1 of career.

 

[kkeith5]

good setup but keep locking brakes in corner 1 wreck the lap

 

[blawohead]

hey guys dont belive this, It's a set-up

 

[darthfury]

great setup viktor! thanks alot

 

[Tom Michelmore]

Got a 1:12:2xx with the 1st setup but a 1:11:9xx is definably possible. Thanks!

 

[Sethebos]

thanks man! helped me a lot!

 

[Lukullus]

Thanx for the setups!

 

[mroziu]

I've used slightly modified Blackfox's setup and was great (Lotus S1, expert, tire and fuel sim on). I've changed brake balance slightly to the front and changed gearbox to 6 gears (didn't used 7th gear at all). With gearbox with less gears there is no need to change gears so often and it also reduces wheel spin

Managed to do 1:17.2 on qual which was P2. I was P9 in race since I was trying to drive safely (since no flashbacks on expert). I think that P4-5 was easily possible.
