Quote from vurun :any tips please?

The best tip is to watch the replays. WRs, replays with good time and driving style that suits yours. Watch others racing lines, braking points, analyze your replays and so on.

Quote from vurun :
i see two big problems here

Your major problems are: missing alot of corners and slow speed during cornering. In T1 you didnt even hit the apex, in T3 you hit an apex too late (and started turning too late too). T4, T6 was too slow.
(Btw, it is good that you are using kerbs to enter the corners wide as possible)

1) exiting T1

T1 exiting is all about practice i think. Main thing in T1 is to have a good exit speed which is acomplished by good cornering speed and pressing throttle as early as possible. Applying full throttle around after you hit the apex is correct exiting . The problem is that the track there is tilted alittle bit which leads to oversteering when applying full throttle. So you need to compensate this oversteer, well, basically, by slightly releasing steering wheel, but the only way to understand how to drive thru this corner is practice.
Btw, your T1 entry is not very good too, which is also the reason for your bad T1 exit. You're starting to turn little bit too late and i think you're turning your steering wheel too softly (too smoothly). Try turning it faster (but not too sharp) and slightly greater angle.
Overall, your S1 time is pretty good i think.

2) working through the turn after long straight (precise braking from 215-216 kmh to make proper trajectory) and two last turns in S2

Well, T3 on the replay was awfull. You missed the turn, you dropped the speed too much and in the end you've moved off from the trajectory.
T4,T5 was fine except the entry speed - could be higher i think. But, well, this turn gives me alot of troubles too.

Quote from vurun :
S3 seems to be not that crappy, so leave it for now))

Well, technically... yes, but comparing to WR the time in S3 is not as good as with previous sectors ~-0.4 diff in S1 and ~0.6 diff in S2 - you are losing ~0.8 in S3 (while driving clean, contrary to S2). You need to: 1)brake harder before T6 (actually, in THIS replay this is the only corner where you're braking really wrong, i couldnt say that your braking in other corners are perfect, but it is definitely not the reason of mediocre times) ; 2) turn steering wheel "sharper" (faster and greater angle); 3) increase speed during cornering. And you can also drive faster thru T7 (last corner), but this will come with practice.

And also i wouldnt stick with the "brake as late as possible" advice (at least until you will be comparable to WR). It is very easy to miss the turn or the apex when braking this way and this wont really give any significant benefits (actually, alot of people i know significantly improved their results after they stopped trying to brake as late as possible). 1.13.8 means you still have errors in your racing line and cornering.
