Part of why online is different is because of the "progressive" physics employed in the single player campaign. Running a race in the lower groups uses much more forgiving physics than in the latter/expert groups. Part of the effort to ramp up the difficulty in a progressive fashion.
That and partly because of lag -- even a fraction of a second delay in correction makes a difference to how the car handles and if some steering input has to round trip between server and client that can account for some of the handling differences.
