A suggestion...........
There are 2 stages between each service point.
When you finish the second stage the game does the save
and then you go onto the service area.
So if you crash or are not happy with your placing, 1st, 2, or 3rd
in the first stage or before you finish the second stage then start again
for improvement.
It will be safer or less frustrating for you to do well here
than hope to do well the way you have been playing without these
improvement attempts.
