Hopefully that part gets better as the races get longer. With a short 2 lap races you basically have to be near the front of the pack after the first big corner to have a chance at catching that car up front.

My only real gripe is that if you take a corner like you should -- slow in, fast out -- you get rammed in the back by the AI. It's like they want every lap to be a late-braking-drift-around-the-corner-seat-of-the-pants sorta thing.

The AI in F3 were slow, but at least they were out of the way by midway through the first lap and you could concentrate on driving clean fast laps.

Agreed, for the most part, if I make sure to run a clean race, I can catch up pretty quick.

But still its far easier to just rewind until you get turn 1 nailed pretty good and just go straight to 3rd or 2nd right off the bat, than struggling to catch up all race.

Well Ive found the AI does an interesting mix of VERY early braking, and ridiculously late braking lol. I saw some AI that was in 1st go WAY off track on the opening lap because of late braking...
