General AI Level
Question: Is it just me or is anyone else having to run the AI level much lower than the previous games ? On last year's game I was running the game on 90% difficulty and now I m struggling on 70% ...

Ok that makes me feel slightly better.
There was me thinking I was loosing it LOL
I had a quick look at your Link of Tests in Hungary - Took me a second because I thought you was racing as Mad Max for a minute - then I saw the Two Haas cars were highlighted.
I cannot for the life of me sort out Setups - One day I sat there watched Hours of YouTube Tutorials , read up on set ups , spent hours tinkering only for the set ups to be worse than the Default set ups and eit tyres faster than snacks in the Cool down room.
So after that day I completely gave up on set ups and only use other people's that have a wheel in Time Trail mode.
I've just added some more context to my findings on the link I shared about tyre wear.
Finally have enough wet/ dry races on 1.10 to really comment.
In the wet the AI needs to drop about 5 to keep a similar pace to dry, this is based on full assists except steering and changing brake and differential in the wet. 3 races, and compared to pace to leader, car infront and behind. 50% race distance.
When I first played under 1.07 the AI seemed balanced everywhere, now it is off qualifying to race at some tracks, needs to lowered at street courses and Hungary and is off in the wet.
If your finding Ai inconsistent from track to track I think the reason is likely down to Tyre temps. As most are aware Ai are not effected by carcass temps. Not sure about surface temps as they are not shown in game. Nevertheless if you race with temps set to carcass and surface. Tracks where carcass temps are a issue will severely handicap the player.
It’s not ideal and shouldn’t be the solution. But turning tyre temps from carcass and surface to surface only will put you on a level playing field with ai. Since I’ve been doing this has made me more consistent against AI across all tracks except track I know I’m not strong on
