Pretty annoying! If your opponents "total race time" is lower than yours for the concerned race, the opponent will stand at a higher place that you in the standings irrespective of the position they actually finished the race. OMP is not real time as already mentioned in hundreds of threads here & also by FM on reddit.

There is substantial time lag of where the actual opponent's car is and where it is shown to you.

It is an internet connection thing, get on with the times. They even have a technical term for it.
