As for the GP mode, I've never played it. Gonna get it to people who does.

I do agree on getting acclimated to the track like you said and adjust the AI Level. But what I do before each race is I go to TT, do 5 laps and that is my practice, then I take the mean(3rd best lap) and input it into the F1 Laps AI Difficulty Calculator and generally go with that number for the race.
My statistical background has some problem with your mean, that's a median and it doesn't work quite well under these circumstances hehehe Just kidding, go as you feel more confortable with.
If you run the Race Strategy Programme that'd be the same 5 laps as yout TT and if you get the time to be around +0.5 and +0.8s each lap, you should be fine with the AI.
One thing you might try is to set get to received more R/D points and the AI less (I don't recall the exactly terms for it, but it's easy to find it in the settings) but you'd still need to run at least one practice programme.

Shoot, my bad lol. Mean is just average, right? Yea, so what I explained is median, but you get the point 😃
I always see guys talking about ensuring your times are near your partner in practice mode to ensure a good AI Diff, but what if your partner is not very good? In year 1 of MyCareer, I'll be with a teammate who is a 65 overall rating or so, which is obviously different than if he's a 90 rated dude.
Yea, that reduced/increased you mentioned in your last point is what I referenced in my OP. If I can find the right mix, I may be able to skip practice altogether, or just do the 1 program like you said(hoping to not have to do any lol) or do some variation of the Quick Practice but where it isn't too easy to complete.
