The AI race starts are so bad

I think this is due to the fact that in this opus the AI do not start with optimal tires temperatures (please do not change that). They start the formation lap with 70°C tires and lose more than 10°C during it. AI should be able to heat their tires during formation lap a little around 80°c as a human player would.

sorry for my english…

Yup. Started from 7th in Australia, and I was 2nd after the first corner.

+1 on this. 

Ridiculously easy at the race start. Went from 10th - 2nd in Aus and just went 16th-9th in China sprint. There initial getaway is fine but they're very slow to put down the power.
