AI in wet conditions are far too fast

But please keep in mind that the real issue lies in the imbalance of the AI's performance between dry and wet conditions. Specifically, the AI becomes excessively fast in the wet compared to the difficulty level set for the dry. It's often the case that, at difficulty 110, one can compete quite easily on a dry track, only to be completely outpaced by the very same AI in wet conditions — sometimes by more than a second and a half per lap.

This imbalance should not be addressed by simply lowering the difficulty when it rains, but rather by increasing the AI's performance on dry tracks — which is currently too forgiving — in order to create a more consistent and realistic challenge across varying weather conditions. Only then can the difficulty curve feel natural, without abrupt shifts in AI behavior.

I’d also like to stress that this feedback is not the result of a personal struggle with wet conditions, but rather stems from an objective and measurable discrepancy in the AI’s lap times and performance.

So, if the AI is too difficult in the wet, an equally serious issue is that it's far too easy in the dry — even at the maximum difficulty of 110. To give a concrete example: at Monaco, I’m able to outqualify the AI by about two seconds, whereas a pro driver would gain three to four seconds, which is simply unrealistic.

I want to stress once again that the solution is not to lower the difficulty in wet conditions, but rather to increase the AI’s performance in the dry, as it is currently underpowered even at the highest setting.

Is there any update on your investigations about the AI in the wet? I’ve seen you’ve listed the thread as being investigated but it’s not listed on the community raised issues pages? Would love an update on what you’ve seen or found out as I’m not playing the game until this is fixed, it’s ruined the realism having to just drive dry races to have a fair competitive races
