The bug is still there. I lost in the Bahrain iGP against much worse drivers that didn't make setup or practice.
Worse drivers aren't the same as a worse car, though. Again, the results aren't a reliable benchmark of performance either. Only a comparison of two identical drivers in identical cars would be fair.
I respect it when people are saying something is happening, but I can see in the data that I've definitely patched up every potential issue on the web side of things when looking at my own races. When this thread was created there was an issue that could make a default setup near to ideal, but not ideal. I patched that.
If anything else is happening it must be internal to the simulator. But the likelihood of an issue being present in quali/race but not practice in the simulator is close to zero. It all uses the same code.
I would speculate that people are using finishing positions for benchmarks again, but the new iGP works differently to the old iGP and finishing positions aren't even meant to be that consistent from track to track in the new one. Different car characteristics are supposed to suit different tracks.
The remaining area I see room for improvement in is qualifying. It is quite erratic and could be behind the more unusual inconsistencies in race results.
