Is it me! I will struggle to catch up with the car in front. After overtaking they seem to lose all the speed and skill they had before I overtook them. Then, in about 15secs. I am about 150yds + ahead of them. Has anyone else noticed this. I would prefer if they were as fast behind me as they were when they were in front of me.

The challenge seems to be in the chase but not in staying in front.  I usually get overtaken if I come off the track or take a corner badly.
