@Jakeymdi don't think this is a problem. the problem is something else.
i play traction control turned off and this year, medium traction people pass me on start almost easily. believe me, i am not starting bad. it is just, if you have medium traction and do it almost right, you can overtake no traction people very easily on starts.
this shouldn't be the case. people with no traction control shouldn't be punished.
there is a video discussing this issue on youtube by alex gillon. (i am not sure if sharing this is appropriate, but here it is, admins, you may remove it if it is inappropriate)

this year, car mechanics have changed and game is designed accordingly. tyres have changed. aero has changed. you can't expect to have the same game as last year. you can go play f1 2021 if that's what you want.
you need to adjust and adapt to circumstances and improve.
