New Player Confusion

So I just bought the game a few days ago, been enjoying it. But I'm having trouble trying to keep up with Ferrari. In my current career I picked RBR, normal difficulty for car development and race difficulty. But no matter what I do or develop I always seem far slower than Ferrari, they've won all but 1 race of the season so far(which I won mainly thanks to the timing on a safety car), getting double podiums all but that one race as well.

I'm kinda confused because it's not even like it's close either, they'll typically win with a 7-13+ second gap between 1st/2nd and 3rd. McLaren I can keep up with, they beat me at high speed but generally I beat them at low/medium speed so it's generally close against them compared to Ferrari. I'll watch Ferrari close a double digit gap after they leave the pits in just a few laps.

Is this really normal? Or what am I supposed to do? I'm not expecting to win a WDC my first season, but as I'm playing one of the top teams to start I kinda expected to be a bit closer than losing by double digits every race.
