I'm playing Career on the long event setting, which I'm loving. It took a while to find an AI difficulty that works, but now I have it's great. Unfortunately, there are 1-2 stages each event where I suddenly win by 2+ minutes, making the overall event difficulty minimal. I think this may be due to how the AI handle tyre wear or something? It's ruining the fun of career mode when a close battle suddenly becomes a dominant win.
For me this is happening after the last update. Always had the difficult set to 100 and today I suddenly win 2 stages with more than 2'00" over the others.
I'm on PS5 Rally1 career with custom car
Here are 3 stages where they went 2 mins too slow or too fast. 94 difficulty Medium event length in career.

Single player modes still unplayable, and worse than that, they said next update will be only mid December. So, at least 1 month untill we can play career mode without smashing AI times by 2 minutes randomly...
Yikes. If they still trying to pin it down and just figure it out, I'd hope they would hotfix it asap when it's fixed and not hold off until then.
Another month (plus the weeks since launch that it's been defective) is a long time for the main single player mode to stay busted.
For now all you can do is try not to quit and resume an event in progress later. I had to switch to "Short" events in the setting so I could get through all the stages of a location in a single sitting and avoid this bug. It's not a good workaround, but when I started doing that I noticed the the AI wasn't falling behind by minutes anymore.
I also saw the issue many times.
Most of the time when quitting the game in the middle of an event and loading the save to complete it.
After the restart, the AI is probably not set to the correct difficulty and drops minutes at every stages until the end.
For me, this is the main issue in the game right now,
@FelipeSeixas29 Hello.
On my side I saw it more often when loading a save. I mean that the AI completely drop, loosing around 1min30 on a short stage and more than 2 minutes on longer ones. And then this will not change until the end of the event.
However, this morning on a Monte Carlo event in WRC2. I lost stage 1 by about 10sec (short stage). Then I won the second stage by around 45sec (18km stage). No major mistakes on both stages. And on stage 3-4 and 5 they were back in contention beating me for a few seconds every time.
And then I saved the game, came back to play stages 6 to 9 and had the bug were they dropped 8min in 4 stages...
So on my side I see 2 issues. The one when the AI drops several minutes at every stage and will never reconver until end of the event.
And another one were on some stages, the AI level is inconsistent.
On your event where you had the issue at stage 2, how did they behave at the next stages ? And did they really drop arounf 1min30 or 2min or less ?
Regards,
