Same thing happens to me, can't downshift from 2nd to 1st - the
right hander before the tunnel at Monaco, and also turn 5 and 6
at Korea were two places this really annoyed the crap outta me

hey nash on the down shift thing i noticed it at abu before the
shicanes,
and i found that it if you slap it down really qwik you have to
be at the right rev for it to go in, i noticed i wasnt getting
into 1st/2nd and it was annoying me then reading your post i
thought i hope my wheel hasnt shat itself aswell, so i tested it
out and to get into 1st u have to be goin slower for it to slip
in properly. i did a big downshift really fast and hit it 6
times no more and was still in 3rd lol. i found after taking a
milli second longer to go into 2nd and 1st i would never miss
the gear again. anyway good luck mate.

I've never been a fast downshifter, so I don't think there's
much I can change in my technique. And it's not just going down
to 1st gear. Even going from say 7th to 3rd, I can sometimes end
up in 4th. I only started noticing it a few weeks ago and
thought maybe it was me, but it's getting worse so I'm pretty
sure it's the wheel. Haven't got round to opening it up yet, but
there might be something obvious I can fiddle with to improve
it. I'll see how I go in Istanbul. It should be better than the
last race.
