AI Difficulty: Amateur
B button out and set the Weather Setting to Clear and then hit continue.
Select Montreal as the track and start the Race
You will be starting in 4th but that’s actually perfect, because as soon as the race starts you want to cut the grass on the left hand side and make it into 1st place.
Don't be too greedy when you cut the grass or it will DQ you. As it's right at the start of the race you can restart if you need to.
This will trigger a Drive Thru penalty for illegal overtaking, so get round the lap and pit straight away, depending on your lap time you should exit the pits anywhere from 2nd onwards.
Now get into 1st and set some good times, don’t cut the track to avoid getting more penalties and keep pumping in the laps.
After a number of laps it will tell you to pit, but ignore this and just keep racing, after another couple of laps (lap 9 for me) you should find that as you pass the start/finish line you will pass cars in the pits, and then during the next lap pass the remaining cars to trigger the Blue Flag achievement.
Once you have that, it will pop straight away, pit and change tyres, when you come out it’s time to slow right down and let the driver in 2nd place overtake you.
Follow them round the track, you can slipstream them to get some time towards the following
Keep lapping until you get into the final lap, pass the guy and move into first and finish then finish the race in first.
It will pop the achievements individually, so don’t worry when only one pops at first.
So there you go 1 race and 3 achievements
I would also want to game cap the chieves to make a video walkthough as well, which means going backwards really as I wrapped that game up a little while ago now and am a big push to get myself further up the racing game leaderboards.

Start a Grand Prix of 20% distance, any track. Choose either Red Bull, McLaren or Ferrari and change the difficulty to easy. To lap a car, you must overtake them when they are on a different lap (less than the one you are on). With the AI being around 10 seconds slower on average (on easy) you should start lapping them after 7-8 laps. Simply lap 6 cars before the race finishes to be awarded the achievement.
If you have a lot of spare time and wish to make it easier on yourself, set the distance to 50% instead of 20%.
