Career mode AI difficulty drops off mid event

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.

    there is still a problem with The AI. I only do quick play events. I setup a  6 stage rally in Portugal and I was 15 seconds faster on the 1st stage then anyone else and it wasn’t Even a clean run. I saved the game then went back to it  and on the next stage  I ended up 2 mins quicker then anyone  else 

    this is even after installing the new patch which is supposed to have fixed this. I’m now stuck with a game that I haven’t been able to play properly since I bought it.

    Still happening to me on PS5. Got the latest update today (which was supposed to fix the issue), was 7th place in Sardegna, get into stage #4 and I win by 1 min 30 sec for no reason, then winning the fifth stage by 2 mins and getting first place in the rally. This is just an incredibly frustrating bug that should be so easy to fix.

  • For me now everything it’s ok. But i restart a new championship and not try to load the Old one. Also try in Custom championship and it’s work

    my ia setting is 75/80 without any ads and i make two stage of monte in championship than save and exit and when i load again nothing change. 
    so now for me it’s playable maybe you have to start a new championship carreer for made the fix to work properly

    The real issue is the general pace of the ai, i think there is also in 75/80 level to much difference beetwen the First two driver pace and the rest of the field. It would be better if beetween the first and the eight driver in a stage there is 2/3 second difference not 15/16 difference 

  • It seems to be fixed, but only after you start a new event (no need to start a new career).

    My career was saved mid-event and after installing the patch, I still had laughably bad AI times in that event.

    But since ending that event and moving to the next, I haven't seen it happen!

    Seems the AI level/stage times is/are somehow saved at the start of an event.
