Feeling the same. I find that every race i settle into the spot where I belong. In season one I found myself close to the back of the pack, especially at end of season when I had lowest ranked car. Ran first race of season 2 last night, with the car ranked in what is practically a 5 way tie for 5th. Came out for last stint in P10 with a 2 sec gap on either end to P9 and P11. After running the last 15 laps that was how I finished - P10 with a 2 sec gap either way.
So far I feel that the cars that pass me on the straights deserve to pass me. Especially since I messed up season one and answered all the pre-season questions to favor Power and Durability.
Here is an example today that was posted on reddit. The driver had better traction out of the corner, AI still pulled away:

Great drivers like Jarno are also noticing the straight line speed of the AI (watch his Mexico MyTeam video for example).

@NylinkThat is a great example of the issue.
I concur.
@Nylink Marcel keifer also says the same…. He’s abit behind the rest and only got to Australia in his my team career. But mentions it a few times
The 110 AI from last years game is identical to this years. The AI is running last years times
but the players car is up to 2 seconds slower. The 110 AI in 2021 is akin to 122AI in F1 22.
Jarno and co need to reduce their AI difficulty level. Get faster or quit moaning.
@ALittleTiger7 You misunderstood. They are not moaning. At all. It’s observations they are just passing on. They never moan.. Jarno and Marcel in particular just suck it up. Unlike some other second rate YouTubers
I concur. Whatever the eSports "celebs" feel is wrong then its up to EA to pacify them. Not much of a concern for me.
I hope all find happiness and live happily ever after. May Jarno and eSports "stars" feet never slip from their pedals.
Godspeed them!
