    Track Selection: Montréal (19 times in succession)

    ------------------------
    Max Players: 12
    Privacy: Public/Open
    Minimum Online Rank: 1
    Minimum Online Rank: 50

    Once you've got that done click on an 'Available Slot' and add an AI Driver set to Legend difficulty. Do the same till the grid is full.
    Once a second human driver enters (or a third even) start the races.
    Choose 'Go to Race', ignore all setup options.

    Driving Strategy:
    ------------------------
    Cut the first corners by driving through the pit exit. (if you're 2nd on the grid you don't even have to steer into the pit exit)
    Cut the first chicane.
    Drive the second chicane normally.
    Cut the third chicane.
    Drive the hairpin normally.
    Cut the final chicane, stay on the left and avoid the kerbs.

    On average you will earn at least 1500 XP per race, and each race including loading times takes about 3 minutes. Doing the 19 races takes almost an hour, and my hourly average is about 40,000 XP. The higher the rank of all drivers involved, the more XP you get, so as you level up you'll level up faster in future.

    Lonsta DaMonstaiDuL, were you going against real people or were you always by yourself with just AI?

    To get to level 50 in the online world of F1 2010 you need to have 1,000,000 experience points.

    You can get experience points by simply racing online, even if you do not win. Obviously, the better you race, the more you gain. Also, the more people in a race, the more points you gain! It seems you also get more experience points for completing clean laps.

    You can actually 'boost' this with a friend, try to get into a lobby where there is only the two of you, so you will be 1st and 2nd and get a decent amount of experience points. [ I do not suggest this, this will take a lot more time ]

    Any way you select to go for this achievement is a grind.

    Good luck!

    [ Just so you guys know, many people out there seem to be racing as if F1 were Destruction Derby, freaking idiots. ]

    VENTIEEEEEEThank you

    ApexiosMay want to add the following to the list to clarify it for people;

    With only TWO people, your XP gained will be; 1,820 for a win, 1,470 for second place, 1,120 for third place. XP does seem to increase with more people, from previous sessions I can confirm this, unsure of exact amounts.

    For those considering racing with NO AI, don't bother, With no AI in the race, you will only gain 520 XP. With 12 AI in the race but set to amateur, you will gain 1,039 XP per win. You will only gain 1,820 with AI on Legendary (they are not quick at all).

    If you also want to increase the laps you race, there is no point. Increasing the laps to 3 (cannot do 2 laps) will only increase the XP by 105, doing this will also increase the amount of time per race by over 2 mins, it's not worth it.

    Doing a full 19 race championship will take around 55 mins. As doing the same race over and over can get boring, you can spice it up with; Montreal, Monza or Interlagos, all are very short tracks, around 1m10 a lap on each.

    Keep it up, and you will get the achievement. I didn't want to boost F1, but F1 2011 is too close to play this legit.

    RampantLaxativeGot this achievement in around 100 hours of game play. Never again am I going to go online with this at times it was just utter rubbish with everyone ramming you off the track and I also noticed in some cases I would be kicked out of lobbies because I was the highest ranked player in it. If I stayed and made the start of the race, I would be the target for everyone to smash into me and I really didn't understand why as I was just racing like everyone else. Even got accused of hacking once when I won 15 races back to back in sprint and everyone was complaining and I was kicked from that session. A lot of sore losers online I found, was ranked 40 on the leader board at the time I got this but since then its all been messed up and now im down at the 600 area. Rather strange,.... I managed to get 429 wins from the chaos on my way to the big 50.

    By far the best way to boost is you and a friend in a custom Grand Prix. Then you click on the 'available space' underneath yours and your friends gamertags and fill the rest of the slots with legend AI.
    Here is the things you want on.
    Session scoring : Championship
    Participation : Race only
    Race Distance : 1 lap
    Starting Grid : Results order
    Car assignment: Players choice
    Weather : Clear
    Track Selection : Montreal. (as many races as you want)
    RULES AND FLAGS : OFF -- IMPORTANT!!!!
    Tyre wear : off
    Fuel load simulation : off
    Car damage : off
    Car performance : 2010
    Collisions : off

    Now you just cut all the corners you can to make sure you win. Take it in turns with your partner to win. You will not get penalised for cutting corners because Rules and flags is off. You get roughly 1500 xp per race, which takes roughly 2 mins including loading times.

    PJTierney@Tully, I came across the method around the 21st, it was being used by NiiKonami and 2 other users who are ranked 49,50 and 51 on the F1 leaderboard.
