Hehe I agree, the "technical part" is impossible to be done in time, resulting in 15+ seconds penalty, even if you push it to the limits.
Looks like the pace analysis system they implemented is not so sophisticated - it does not take into consideration the hairpins and hard corners.
But the AI is easy enough to complete the event in Greece - take minimum penalty points in most of the stages and take on the chin the penalty points on the impossible one - you will still have much less than the AI considering all the stages.
But I agree, this could have been executed better.
