I just bought F1 2020 (after playing 2019 for a year) about a day ago and have started a career with racing point, when I first started in practice I was on delta running a bit slower from the previous game but that was fine, even coming 5th on in Qualifiers, anyways race day comes and my car is so slow its unbelievable I dropped 5 positions by the end of it, I was hitting the corner almost perfect every time but everyone and their grannies was able to overtake down any and every straight. I am using a controller and I've checked to see if it registers 100% of my throttle and it does, any chance someone has a solution I haven't been able to find anything anywhere. Cheers.
