thinking more about the topic:
I would say it is important to distinct the settings on the server side and on the client side.
Narrow download bandwith on client side could cause problems but I think only on client side - dissapearing/lagging opponents, because you are unable to download the data from all of the cars. I would estimate that on the client even narrow upload bandwith should be sufficient because only client telemetry is uploaded which I would expect to be small data package.
On the opposite on the server side the upload bandwith has to be mighty because have to feed each client with the data from all other clients and especially at the start of the race when all cars are in one pack.
From what we saw on sunday I would say the problem is on the server side because probably all of participants struggled some problems.
But of course current problems can be also build related...
And take my post more as a brainstorming than expert advice I really do not feel as an authority...
