That's usually correct- generally race cars move towards a greater compression to rebound ratio when ride comfort is a lower priority. Eyeballing it the compression damping on the 1M doesn't look terrible high, assuming these graphs originally posted by eeghie are correct. Note they are upside down compared to what you'd expect, looks like about a 3:1 ratio front and rear at the knee.
