I'm also struggling, especially through the last corner. But the main issue here is that the AI take it full throttle, something we cannot influence. But if someone has a tip, that would be highly appreciated!

I'm in 4th gear when I hit the apex at turn-13, up to 5th for turn-14 and down to 2nd for turn-15.  Smooth turn in for the start of turn-13 is vital and hitting that proper apex and exit or that whole section is toast all the way through turn-15.  Got to have a super smooth flow through that whole section which is difficult to pull of time after time for me.

I'm still working on getting it right every time...but I clear that section very fast most of the time, which is my problem..."most of the time" just doesn't cut it when racing that track.

EDIT:  Oh yea, for some reason I get stuck with a tad of wheel spin 80% of the time on that final turn-16 which messes up my time as well...that's a sleeper corner.

Good luck!

It's not a bug.

Most people's problems is the final corner. Make sure you're in fifth gear for the corner and be steady with the throttle until you're straightened up. You should match the AI through there that way. Smoothness rather than speed is quicker through that part of the track.
Oh, and make sure you're in standard or lean fuel mix, that way you won't spin the wheels too much.

Don't have your rear springs higher that 6 or lower than 4, rear balance equal to the front (eg 6-6) works for me (no higher than 7's)
