@DRudd13 So basically its come down to this:
If your tech level in the F2 event is below 680 (or so), the AI is set to 110 difficulty.
First screenshot: The AI in the Official F2 series 2 race at Spain set to 35 difficulty, 760 tech level with 0 added tech level.
Second screenshot: The official F2 cars at Spain with the same qualifying, racing conditions and difficulty set to 110 (tech level not available).

They do pretty much identical times in qualifying...

* More further down *
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Now, here comes the confusing part.

If your F1 World cars tech level goes beyond 700 (mine was 703 at this point here), the AI in the Official F2 series 2 becomes slower and is possible to beat again.
Just did the qualifying and race and was beyond puzzled as I did a "slow" qualifying, still came P1 and won the race with ease.

Screens below...
First: Qualifying with slow/bad lap, P1
Second: Race result without any trouble or need to push hard.
So why on earth does the AI become slower in F2 races just because the players F1 World car becomes quicker???????? Hello????

I should have also asked what tech level the series 2 is set to, as I haven't unlocked it yet. But I know series 1 was easier.

F1 world revolves around tech level and gets harder the more you unlock. But your tech level is also improving.

For example, I know I can achieve the set goal being around 110 under the set AI tech level (obviously skill based so will be different for everybody), And completing series 1 of f2 it unlocked f1 series 3 which is 590.

So I know I will struggle if I tried that now at 379. But as you can see (in the picture) I'm nearly close enough to attempt Asia & Oceania short to help me try f1 series 3.

Hope that makes sense and helps you.

The tech level of the F2 race series is 760 at 0 added tech level (cant add or remove any tech level inside the F2 category anyway).

I have asked around on a few different discords, and people are saying that the AI is doing (close to) WR TT times with the F2 cars at 35% difficulty with 0 added tech level. Thats insane!

For some sort of reference, I can do any of the 'Solo & Multiplayer Events' daily races at 1150 tech level (thats with 150 added tech level) without too much trouble.

Edit: added another picture below.

Here is an example at 1000 tech level.

@Phoenixx-90It looks like you're a skilled driver, and I'm not saying it's not a bug.

I've been doing a lot of F1 world today. And what I found was I was able to complete the goals in the F1 world car at 170 below the recommended AI level. But when it came to the official F1 and F2 cars, it was 80 below the AI level, so more than half.

I believe this is because in the F1 world car you get all the boosts attached to your car parts/team members. While in the official cars you don't.

So I still think you just need to make your tech level closer to the recommended level.
Edit: You can add level to F2, You've just got to go to an event that allows you to add it, add what you want then go back to the F2 event.

  @DRudd13 It doesnt matter if its F1 World car or F1 brand car (Ferrari, Mclaren etc). I did the Arcade race in the daily at Monza, 5 laps in a Ferrari with none of the boost attached, with 150 added Tech Level (though that should not matter due to "equal or realistic" brand cars). I won by 22 seconds in 5 laps.
  After that, I tried doing the qualifying multiple times, again, in the F2 series with world record time trial setups, tried finding race setups, and still could not get within 1 second of the AI in Spain. That was with the tech level set to 0, which was 760 as in the previous screenshot.
  
  So again, tech level should not matter when it comes to official brand cars like F1 or F2 series.
  I guess it does, but it shouldnt, and the F2 cars should definitely not be this quick in that F2 series when the difficulty is 35 and tech level is 0.
  
  Im not saying the F2 series is easy or should be easy, but it shouldnt be impossible to win and progress from it.
  
  Some telemetry screenshots below from various races: First one being the previous F2 race I won. 2nd being the daily Arcade race on Monza.

    @Phoenixx-90 But the daily arcade race is just AI level 35 with no tech level. While the F2, you're trying to do is AI level 35 plus 760 tech level, which is a lot higher than your tech level.
