Well, i'd just pretend this event wasn't part of the updates.
So I've now completed the Silver level with a 5m32.914s lap using the X2014 Fan car at 75% power, speed limited to 255mph and Intermediate (wet) tyres. Everything else is standard, i.e. suspension settings, gear ratios and wing/aero. Just got to find a way to trim another 8 seconds by getting used to more power or greater speeds...This is exactly what I did too so I could learn the track and the car. Didn't like the X2014 so am using the X2011 with everything standard except power down to 50% and speed to min (249mph I think). Once I got in a couple of clean laps I worked my way to Bronze and now just off Silver with power up to 60% and speed at 280mph. Need to increase the power again though I think, although it will make the wet section trickier!
OK so got my Gold (5m22.944s) and on to another Seasonal challenge now... Ended up with power limited to 1000bhp (83.9%), speed limited to 261mph and Race Hard tyres. Total 375 miles from all free runs and Time Trial attempts. Job done!So I've now completed the Silver level with a 5m32.914s lap using the X2014 Fan car at 75% power, speed limited to 255mph and Intermediate (wet) tyres.

Yes, it's much better, it doesn't need that much power and it goes just as fast on the straight but is much more controllable in the corners due to improved aerodynamics and more powerful fan.5:31,xxx in a X2010 S. Vettel with lots of rain. Not bad and at least it's silver. Is the X2014 Fan Car so much better?
I'm sure i was able to beat my time but i broke my wrist today .
So i won't .

Day 1 - Finished only about 50% of the Track
Day 2 - Finally a fully Lap = 5:49:184 (Bronze)
Day 3 - Finished only about 50% of the Track
Day 4 - My second fully Lap = 5:28:857 (Silver)
50 Minutes later (same Day) I finished my third lap = 5:24:955 (Gold)
As People said before, this is possible and you Need to stay focused and not to give up so quickly. I spent around 14 hours of total gaming and I drove around 2500 km for this event with a lot of crashing and bumping, but this doesn't matter.
I realized that even with only 3 clean laps and lots of crashing and bumping, you can train the first part which you have to do more and more because of the crashing and bumping. On my first clean lap I needed around 3 Minutes to get 50% of the lap. So after more and more Training, I got a 2:40 Min for the same Position on my 2nd and 3rd clean lap.
So I changed only a little with my driving style for the other 50% and after the 3rd lap it was enough to get Gold and I can tell you my 2nd part of the Gold lap Looks horrible where you can see my nervous driving style with too much braking and over/understeering (and all this with the DS3).
To drive in Arcade Mode helps too so you get a feel where you make mistakes. Even with mistakes, I got a Gold time.
Really great for the first lap! What rain percentage you had? It's really important here, I tried couple of times in new year and I can't get below 40%. I think I'm out of luckFinally put a lap together!
4:36.7.. Not bad, but not good either, played it cool the last 10 or so corners, and made quite a few minor mistakes too.
Setup from @DrAug , with LSD 10/5/10, and DF 1000/1350
Btw, mega lap you got there mate!
wait, the rain percentage is variable?Really great for the first lap! What rain percentage you had? It's really important here, I tried couple of times in new year and I can't get below 40%. I think I'm out of luck
Yes, unfortunately it is. It's really stupid. Great time in heavy rain!wait, the rain percentage is variable?
Seriously?
I think I hit something like 46% at most...
Wow, how stupid. I guess I'll have to do another lap and see if I can get less rain. thanks for the heads up!Yes, unfortunately it is. It's really stupid. Great time in heavy rain!
When you're out on track try to see how much rain you have and when its low, I will recommend to slightly lower the downfore
