Track: Havana - Paseo de Marti
Vehicle Category: Seasons

You're free to do this in Free Play - Time Attack. Havana being a street circuit means you don't have to worry about being penalized for exceeding track limits.
Assists used: Automatic Transmission
ABS, Traction Control and Stability Control not used
Setup: Gear Ratio +1, leave rest at zero (middle)
Either stiffen the suspension and avoid - or go easy - on the track's huge curbs, or soften it to be able to attack them more. I went with a compromise as avoiding them costs too much time.
My pointers:
0:21 I turn late (go wide) into this corner - not following the racing line - and go for a late apex (0:28) in order to exit the corner with more speed, because of the fast section that follows.
0:41 Nothing to be gained from cutting the curb at this corner IMO.
1:09 Difficult corner. I take a line that lets me hold onto as much speed as possible.
1:26 Again a late apex, like in the first corner.
1:39 Ditto
Other than that, watch at which speed I enter and exit corners. The fast (not flatout) corners are trickiest as the MINI will understeer, especially when you hit the pedal, so regulate your speed and wait for the right time to accelerate 100%. If it looks like you might be heading for a wall, just lift the throttle a little; that helps a lot with the understeer.
I also brake gradually (watch the rear lights) because I don't have ABS enabled. Experiment to find out what works best for you.
