Yeah, you can beat it. I was going to give up, but after a while I experimented with using other weapons besides the fireball to counter-attack, and eventually succeeded - in other words, DON'T fight fire with fire.
I used the awesome new guided aiming on the rocket launcher to lay utter destruction on approaching enemies (as fireballs are very limited in accuracy whereas a rocket can now be fired with pinpoint precision at medium-long ranges), using the walkway above the large armour pickup and near the bottom of the elevator as a relatively easy place to defend from.
Even then, it took a long time, but it is possible. But devs, please tone down that mad fireball gun....
I did get stuck on that stupid rocket-jumping race though (get around the track in 36 seconds - apparently there's a hidden skill inside rocket-jumping, which was supposed to be a hidden skill in itself, seemingly).
