Has anyone noticed a new tactic by the AI? Today I had Logano creep up behind me and give a draft.

I was in third but way too far behind 1st and 2nd to catch them in time. Then suddenly, I noticed Logano behind me and gaining. I was maxed at 322 kph in my Ford Fusion NASCAR which can do a lap in about 44.2-44.6 with a top speed of 329 kph. It took about two laps to catch up and as he got closer the draft started and we got up to about 328-330 kph. When I was within striking distance of 2nd, he mysteriously backed off in one of the corners.

I had lost a few times getting no better than 20th because of a random loss of grip and getting spun though Harvick was still in 1st. Maybe this is a new feature of the NASCAR AI to help you catch first.
