Are you using all assists?? In my Porsche with 3 of the final engine missing I rarely went over 28 minutes. That's with tilt A, steering high. TC on and brakes low. With aggresive corner cutting I once got 27:18 (turning off brakes and flying through first & last chicanes). The Porsche is pretty easy to drive with TC off too. It's grip is so good. You have to make up time in the corners, especially the last section of corners. The Porsche is the best in the corners.

Another change; the bots run a slightly lower line coming into the first corner. I used to be able to pass many bots before getting to the 1st corner. Then I would blow by them all full speed into the sand and come out just before the Dunlop bridge (common method). Now I have to be careful at the start. The bot are lower and I haven't once made it through without having to brake several times. I can still be in the lead by the Dunlop bridge, but it's tight!

Also, I have had a few races where the field is wrecking before the first corner. That made some bots spin out and hit me hard!

They changed the Endurance Champions 10 lap track dynamics as well. Plus the bots are just more aggresive!
