Yes, the 1>2 shift takes time. That's because of the synchro resistance which as erhanh stated above is because first and second gear have very different gear ratios. Yes, that means you lose some momentum and time there but you definitely should NOT try to force that shift to complete faster if you value your synchros.
Fyi that 1>2 shift gets smoother and a bit quicker after about 2500 miles, but it'll always take longer than the other shifts. This car at least in 6MT form isn't a drag racer, but that's not really what this car is about anyway.
