Two useful discoveries I've made farming Le Mans in EC... 1. Little errors and off track excursions early in a race often lead to uncatchable leader at end of race. 2. Cars go slower at end than at the start, and damage accumulates in this race to exaggerate the effect.

These seem related; lost time early is problematic because bots are more consistent and since they rarely leave the track, and start from pole, there is less damage taken by the lead car.

Turning off wifi and restarting the game almost always gives me a good grid, without losing unnecessary races. If I have a clean start and get up to 9th by end of second lap I usually win 9/10 times. 8th or better 100%, 10th or worse it's more like 60% win. So I know what's up in 6 min. ;)
