Finally I finished 6.4 !!!

My tip for those still struggling:

I was about to give up, because (my classical) bot slowing did not work. I lost about 20 to 30 times and no matter what the counter ran out in the last corner before finishing line while the car in front crossed that line already and I just came up side-by-side when I had already lost.

I spent even GC and R$ to update body and drivetrain to 3 to no avail. Still same distance. Retry or restart didn't matter either.

But then I changed tactics. To find out which setting was fastest for me I stopped servicing. Even with the unserviced car result was the same! Car in front was not much faster then before and if so only due to my errors.

After I was comfy with TA off BA off steering 10 SA low I serviced the car and surprise surprise I was side-by-side with 5th car 2 turns BEFORE finishing line. Then it was easy peasy.

So bot slowing with unservicing the car seems the way to go.

Tip on strategy:

After green light break early in first corner (I take distinguish dark green patch off grass on the right as marker) full on throttle as soon as possible. Use curbs in the next two corners. Cut short over grass in the second last corner before finsh (those came side-by-side with the 5th car). Then proper onto straight.

In first corner after straight cut short by passing the wall as close as possible and using pitlane exit to speed up again. Break hard short before advertising bridge into next corner and maybe use grass on inside to shrtcut and stabilize.

Then as one is used to drive (might even turn BA back on)...

I got third car almost exactly where I started and even saw Magnus 100m ahead. On the second lap I got overly excided from catching up to Magnus and threw the car out of the second corner due to breaking late. Luckily was still far ahead of third car and finished 2nd.

WIsh you the same luck and hope it helps.
