    I thought this issue needs to be quickly escalated after I hurt my wrists on a DD2 and needs a separate thread. @Renato Simioni

    Track: Old Kyalami
    Car: McLaren GT3 (and many others)
    Mode: Test Day (start from the pit)
    Description: Since the car starts in a position way too close to the wall, when the car is "dropped in" to start the physics calculation, the right tires touches the brick wall and launch the wheel into a hard spin hurting, wrists, arms and shoulders if you don't expect it.
    Simple Fix: Move all the starting position for every cars 1 meter / 3 feet to the left to avoid any issues.

    The problem is more general - at Taruma and other circuits with narrow pit lanes, it is very easy to scrape the pit wall at slow speeds when exiting the pits, which leads to excessive FFB forces being experienced. Even without a DD wheel you get very jarring oscillations that are completely disproportionate to the speed and amount of contact.
