My opinion may be subjective instead of empirical, but I do indeed notice fishy behaviour in 7.2 that was not replicated afterwards in WTTT. Like countless others before me, I played 7.2 for over 3 hours and more or less memorized the exact braking points required; when I used the Chrion Sport once again in WTTT, the braking points were *noticably* later and the car behaviour was less snappy than in stage 7, breaking grip in a more gradual fashion.

Of course it could be said that bots in the way would screw up your cornering lines and extend the required branking points, BUT on certain corners with a clear track (in 7.2) the braking distance is still longer than in WTTT. For instance, at the chicane I had to brake before the curbs on the right (in 7.2), while in WTTT I could brake past them and still make a perfect turn. The car doesn't seem to behave in the same way; perhaps there were some hidden attributes to nerf the braking/ gip that the monkeys would not blatantly show up in your car stats.

I'd like to give them the benefit of the doubt but in past SEs, cars were very likely secretly nerfed as well (the Mercedes CLK-LM in Silver Tourer comes immediately to mind......)
