keep going straight (AFTER splitting) as long as enemies block the way to their zone.
If you’re fast enough, block them and attack by grinding their main grind (the one at start) if you’re not fast enough, wait approximatively 3/4 of the length of your tail to turn back and try to attack going through by the center.

if they slightly outspeed you and you anticipate that they will try to cut you off, you have two options

1 brake, slow down, 180 and retreat

2 make a step towards your defense and grind the wing man behind you

Better delay it the most by still going straight until the very last moments, then try to confuse him by going straight again, then go back to the direction of the base. If you get close enough to the RIM, use the RIM.
Main thing is, after all, protecting your base.

if they way outspeed you try grinding back your tail to block them later on or brake and make yourself look vulnerable so they try to attack you instead of your open defense.

Also, position 2 is on the weak side of the team. The grinds are offset and the opponents is always slightly left than your own teams. So as position 2 you are on the weakside, the leftside.

However, it’s the side where you will always have an outer, starting with 4v4.
PS: Grmpf, almost edited your post.

yes, but after 5v5 both sides have outers and with 6v6, that second outer is usually defending.
