I used the above setup for the Fiat & was able to Gold it with DS3 & using AT. Gold was achieved with 2.08 1st lap & 2.03 after that.
Had all aids off except ABS 1
Use controller sensitively 3 or less
Need to minimize tire squeal
Must take corner before long straight without lifting off gas
Don't overbrake at end of long straight (min speed in that corner was 62mph @ apex, 60 climbing up hill)
Keep your speed up as much as possible. I think there are only 4 turns where you need to use brakes (after 1st tunnel, at end of back straight, & at 2 sharp turns at end of lap).
You need to lift but not brake in first tunnel. Speed over split marker should be ~58.
I increased final gear up slightly for more acceleration but just under limiter. Will post final gear when I get on PS3.
Good luck!
EDIT: Final gear increased to 4.050

So how did you win with the Fiat? Are you maxing the tranny out to 240, and what about the final gear, where is that. Also, I have seen suspensions that have the Fiat in the -15/-10 range and transmissions that are fully lowered, any advice people?

Honestly the FIAT is the easiest thing ever. You won't need any setup beyond buying a few parts...All Aero Parts and a choice of engine tuning that will bring you to 66HP. Also a customizable tranny. That's it. You don't need anything else. Make sure your tranny is bang on perfect and have a good clean race. You'll easily win.
Edit: For DS3 turn off all assists except ABS=1. Set controller sensitivity to whatever you like to race with, I personally like 7.

I ran a full customize transmission on the FIAT at only 106 MPH top speed. The car can't even get past 100 with the setup I used and I won by a quarter of a second.

the fiat race is a #@%$!@#%( ! %(!&@#%& !(@#&% (&!@%(& @!#%!$(& %!&($#@%! (&^%$& ^&$^( (!&$6 &(!#$ (^&!#$(&^!#$ and !%&#(!&#@ (!@#$( %!@&(#%

I'm so pissed, the rest of my day is ruined because i just spent the last 3 hours and i can't do it, despite making every %!%!@#% corner perfect.
I'm sure there are a very few people who like doing perfect races; but that's what time trials are for. I shouldn't have to get @#%@# %!@#%!@ at a stupid game just because I want to win a challenge. It's pointless, there is no !#@%$!@% damn reason I have to drive PERFECT for 10 straight minutes where if i even go 2:04 for 1 lap i will not win.
no i don't crash, no I don't hit any cars, yes i draft, yes I hit every corner either faster then the line or equal to it, no i don't use breaks and if i do I have my sensitivity set to 1:3 and i feather it.

seriously, this isn't fun. I"m not pissed off at this game and pissed off for the rest of the day. I thought games were suppose to be fun and challenging; well playing perfect and being behind 1 second despite spending 5 god damn hours is not FUN

They're called "expert races" for a reason.

Pick a setting. Hitting the limiter during the race? Raise top speed. Not hitting? Lower top speed. Find perfect spot = Profit.
Generally you're not going to go faster than 89-91 mph, so keep that in mind and see what works for you.

Exactly. Love to see everybody desperate for tuning settings, while i have GOLD on 2 of those events. 👍

yeah they are called expert; not impossible. The fiat one is harder then the other 2 expert events which I have gold already. It's harder then any A-spec match i've done too.
You have to be PERFECT, no room to even take a corner a split second to slow.
if you get 2:04 on even 1 lap, you will not WIN; you have to restart.

just used the op's tune on the 111R & got to 1st in no time. I think what helped me out the most was the tranny gearing even though I didn't use an RM & the little bit of front toe out (-.03) helped loosen the car up so I could reduce steering wheel input. Made all the difference. Thanks ADRENALIN
Have only tried the Fiat race so far and enjoying the challenge... best is 1.7 secs behind the leader in second but that was with 2 'scruffy' laps as I'm not exactly the neatest of drivers. I'm sure I'll get there soon enough.
Definitely a lot of fun driving the wheels off a low powered car for this challenge
