What you're describing reminds me of something that used to happen a lot in GT6 but I didn't notice it as much in GT Sport. I haven't raced online in GT7 to see.

I described it as a lag. It manifested as a slight increase in sluggishness and/or decrease in grip. When many cars were close together on track in an online race, it was like the calculations for where they all should be and how your car moved got sloppier. It felt like there was an increase in calculation error that resulted in slower cars.

Once the pack spaced out a bit it would diminish. I knew it didn't have to do with tires warming up or dirty air or anything because it wouldn't happen at all in races with small fields even when the pack was all close. GT6 quick match was pretty sparsely populated at times.

Good job in the races though, especially with knowing your limits and running a smart race. Reading through your experience tempts me to come back to it a little
