F1 2012 Vet feeling like a rookie

[ENDR]

Sooo... This is frustrating...
HOW THE HELL do you people do those laptimes in Melbourne? I've tried a bunch of setups for my Williams (found here or on other sites) and only once in a blue moon I can get below 1:28, which is kind of sucky and makes me end my qualifying far in the back in Q2... On Professional difficulty...
Back in F1 2011 doing 1:26 or lower was a piece of cake and I used to consistently win races on Legend in a Sauber. I know that game had a pretty different driving model, but still - I'm no rookie and I know my way around Albert Park. Yet, now I feel like I'm slower than the AI in every friggin' corner...
It's not as bad on other tracks. I don't feel so slow at e.g. Silverstone or Malaysia. Getting gold in those champions' challenges is pretty fun and easy as well (after a few laps of warming up). It's just Australia (one of my favorite tracks in F1 2011) that makes me crawl into a corner and cry in shame...

I honestly Just think it is the game. It is terrible compared to 2011

Nope, can't subscribe to that ideology

I think it's much better, in terms of the driving anyway. There are some problems and bugs, but as I've said before, if people try to play 2012 like 2011, they won't get on with it
