The new (version 7) Start Race sceen (see attached photo) can be a bit of an issue. (for me) I have several times overlooked the fact that I'm suppose to tap the message in the light blue box first before tapping the big green Start Race button.  Any chance the green Start Race button can be grey out or even not available until you tap the light blue message.  It would nice if the blue message had it's own big green button that said something like "Transfer Settings" This would be your only option until pressing it and then the Start Race button would be on the next refreshed page.  I'll get use to pressing the blue message in time, but if it's a long time between races I'm sure I'll overlook it again.  :-)   Thanks Marc.

Hey Rick,

the idea was to keep it subtile, since it isn't necessary to transfer the settings in many cases. I'll think about it though.

Cheers,
Marc

 I had a feeling there was a reason you did it that way. I have had several issues where at the start of a race it will say someone just left the pits and give them a pit speeding penalty.  Also if someone runs out of fuel at the end of the last race and we go directly to the next race they will still be out of fuel at the start of the new race.  So I feel it's necessary to tap the blue message each time just to be sure none of that happens at the start of a new race. But I'll get use to it or I'll stick a post it note on my iPad.  :-)   Thanks.
