Some starts are screwed up. Yesterday on Suzuka about 30% of starts didn't play out right. Start at pole, be in 3rd before the first corner and vice versa. I haven't seen a drop that big though. Something wrong with your gas pedal? I have seen 20 sec gaps in the field due to a pile-up during auto-drive.
I joined GT Planet to look for advice for dealing with the crappy penalty system. They say it gets better in DR.B. So yesterday I spend a full day on Suzuka with a good qualifying time. 9 wins later and more pole positions and a few fastest laps I'm now close to DR.A

It wasn't without bumps though. Matchmaking is much better on a sunday yet if you don't start in the top 4 chances are you still end up in the carnage. I almost dropped back to SR.A after 4 dirty races with shit like this
He was further back, didn't brake, still left the track after using me as a guide.
And the penalty system was screwing me over as well
10 sec penalty for brushing an out of control track re-entry, just before the finish.
Another race I guess someone had a penalty to get rid of, he slowed all the way down swerving in the final chicane creating a big pile-up so he could still keep his place.... Still better than the epic pinball race where I get accused for being dirty at the end after getting send flying into the pack.... Oh well, overall more clean races than dirty ones by the grace of having many pole positions or at least top 3 starts.
I did 3 more races at lunch time today, shouldn't have with crap like this
1, 2, 3 bumps forcing me into the wall ruining my race. That's DR.A behavior and is fully allowed by the game.
My score went down despite a good qualifying time starting me in the top 3 for the 3 races.

From what I read on GTPlanet, many people are giving up on the FIA races. Behavior is worse there and the messy qualifying doesn't help.
