Is that the Integra R at High Speed Ring? If so, it's tough, but I've bronzed it on Pro physics, about 0.75 seconds behind the MINI. 1':32.077".
The only real tricks I can tell you are:
1) Keep your momentum up as much as possible; brake early but somewhat lightly.
2) DILYSI - drive it like you stole it. Lean on other cars in the turns; nudge a little where necessary and where it will help you, but don't just nail the other cars, because that will slow you down. You cannot win this race while running squeaky clean unless you are an alien.
3) Two turns are crucially important - the second part of the right/left esses after the bridge, and the last big left sweeper. Maximize your exit speed from these two turns, even if that means slowing more than you think you should earlier in the sequence. Both of these lead onto looooong straights and every ounce of speed you can gain coming out of those turns will give big payoffs in time. Stay a little slower between the two esses if that means you don't have to lift throttle after the apex of the left leading into the tunnel.
4) Pay attention to shift points. This car likes to be wound out, but watch to see when your acceleration is tapering off and shift a little before then. IIRC that was about halfway between redline and the rev limiter.
5) Any time you're not actually passing, you should be directly behind the car in front of you for slipstreaming (unless they are running off the outside in the esses).
