What is with the one lone drivitar that is beyond the difficulty setting?

I’ve started to notice this a lot but there is one car every race that is magically more than 10 seconds a lap better than any other drivitar on the track. Why does this occur? I’m guessing turn 10 really can’t handle 24 cars on the track so it just diverts all cpu resources to one car and is like eh screw the rest.
