I would advise starting with the Gold Lap achievement. This gives you chance to get used to the track and all its shortcuts. Gold is much easier to attain than any of the normal tracks, and won't take too many laps to get it. Next move on to winning a race on 3,000cc, and then collecting trophies. All the while taking the locked shortcut. Finally, find a friend to beat online.

Conclusion
F1 Race Stars can be a bit tedious to begin with, but once you get to grips with the (clunky) controls, you can master the game in less than 30 hours. I put 30 hours, just in case you need a little more time to practice (like me). I managed to get to 1000 by around 27 hours.
Pretty simple acheivement to obtain, load up Career mode and aim to win (I believe 1st, 2nd or 3rd is classed as a win) the first race in the Initiation Cup, I found these races to be a lot easier to win than the following championships.
To take a locked shortcut, you are going to need to find the key to unlock it, the key appears on every lap of the race, unless you are leading.
Belgium is pretty simple, make sure on your first lap you are in second place (or lower but another racer in front of you may grab the key beforehand so be warned) just before the waterslide/river bear left, follow the path round over the wooden bridge and collect the key (you will know you have it as it floats above your head). Follow the path to the start/finish line and after your first right turn, rather than go through the factory you should see a door to the right of the factory entrance, as long as you have the key above your head, aim for that door and it will let you through.
Load up Career, race 8 different championships and come 1st, 2nd or 3rd by the time each championship has finished.
(Please note that to unlock some of the championships you must have earned Gold in a previous similar championship for example to unlock 'Mirrored 2' Championship, you must have earned a gold in the 'Mirrored 1' Championship.)
Load up Career, race 15 different championships and come 1st, 2nd or 3rd by the time each championship has finished. (although this unlocked for me after my 14th championship!)
(Please note that to unlock some of the championships you must have earned Gold in a previous similar championship for example to unlock 'Mirrored 2' Championship, you must have earned a gold in the 'Mirrored 1' Championship.)
Load up Career, race 23 different championships and come 1st, 2nd or 3rd by the time each championship has finished.
(Please note that to unlock some of the championships you must have earned Gold in a previous similar championship for example to unlock 'Mirrored 2' Championship, you must have earned a gold in the 'Mirrored 1' Championship.)
Load up Career, race 30 different championships and come 1st, 2nd or 3rd by the time each championship has finished.
(Please note that to unlock some of the championships you must have earned Gold in a previous similar championship for example to unlock 'Mirrored 2' Championship, you must have earned a gold in the 'Mirrored 1' Championship.)
Upon completing the 30 championships, as long as you have earned a bronze, silver or gold trophy in each, your career trophy cabinet will be full (you will see this on the screen before you choose which championship you want to race in the bottom right corner).
Some people have difficulty with this achievement, the simplest way is to stay up with the pack at the front or if your leading slow down to join the pack, if your lucky enough to have a Pulse power-up, use it in proximatey of 3 other racers.
This can be a very easy achievement if you have 2 controllers and can be done from the Play option of the game and doesnt have to be done on a set CC class.
Choose a race (Belgium is a good choice) and press to customise the race, change the Power-up Balance to Bubbles only and accept.
When picking your driver, choose Lewis Hamilton or Jenson Button as they can both swap their power-ups, the second player can choose any driver.
Whislt in the lobby change the setup so its set to teams have yourself on one team and player 2 as the other team, then start the race.
When the race starts, allow the CPU drivers to make there way off the line with player one following, player 1 grabs a power up and hopefully grabs a 3x Ricochet power up, if you dont get it, hold to change the power up, if your unlucky again driver to the next power up and so on until you get 3x Ricochet Bubbles
Try to parkthe 2nd player infront of the first, then with player 1, fire the Ricochet Bubble 3 times (pause before firing each one so that they each register).
Slipstreaming is where you stay behind a driver, you will gain speed (and if you are Seb Vettel or Mark Webber a boost power up) once you have gained enough spped, overtake the racer you are slipstreaming to obtain this little beauty.
You can obtain this through the 'Play' mode. (Credit to loserb0i)
38 Shortcuts to take
Belgium
2 Shortcuts
1. Just after the factory take an immediate right (most AI cars go this route by default it seems).
2. Get the key by following the path which starts immediately to the left of the rapids, and use the key to the right of the factory entrance.
Germany
4 Shortcuts
1A. At the start of the race there is a dirt road off to the left by the first corner, if you time it right you'll get the shield key.
2. After you drop back down from getting the key, there is a shortcut immediately to the left, keep you're eye out as it is quite easy to miss.
1B. Take the furthest right path through the castle for the locked shortcut.
3. There is a big jump that you can land on a high route up through the top of a castle, you need a full KERs corner boost to make it.
4. Just before the final couple of corners there is a small narrow road to the right which cuts them both (behind a little blue hut).
This achievement does not need to be done in Career Mode, it can be obtained via Play Mode.
The simplest way I found was to set up a race, whilst choosing the track, press to customise the race, change the race to a Slalom and Point Target to 10,000.
Enter the race and aim to hit the same colour gate each time you see one, the more you hit the higher the points (max of 500 per gate) someone told me that waiting for the other racers to move ahead would make it easier to hit the gates, however this didnt work for me as the driver at the front would aim for the Star Gate gaining 500 points every gate and beating me to the 10,000 target, I found it easier to stay with the pack and either hit the star gate or aim for the same colour, it took me about an hour to get all tracks done this way.
Just make sure that before you customise the race you are pressing on the track you need to achievement for!
Im not sure if this can be obtained on your own as I obtained it during a 2 player race.
Eitherway in a 2 player race, stay towards the back of the pack, once the Eliminator timer starts and you get eliminated you become a Ghost Racer with an infinite supply of Pulse Power Ups. All you need to do it hit another live racer with the pulse before they too become a Ghost.
In 2 player mode ensure that one of you is leading the pack as once you both become Ghosts the game ends (hence why I dont think you can get it in a Single Play session).
In Trophy Chase, the aim is not to win the race but obtain as many Trophies (scattered on the track) as possible, if you receive any damage you will drop trophies.
Aim for the racer with the most trophies and hit them with a power up, Pulse power-ups work the best due to the range around them and as you will all be jostling for trophies, hitting someone with it shouldnt be too difficult.
As the title reads, aim to hit each racer with a power-up, this can be done in the 'Play' Mode, I would suggest setting it to 10 laps or so and having a list of all racers taking part, then once you have hit one of the racers pause your game and mark them off.
