How does it work in Sports mode? It seems like I'm getting penalty-time totally arbitrarily. In the last race I just started from the rolling start, and from the first second of the lap, I start accumulating penalty time, without having done anything or hit anyone. And randomly mid-race, a sign pops up, stating SLOW DOWN, without me having seen any yellow or white flags or anything like that. The system seems to have a mind of its own. Does anyone know how it functions?

Not sure - I've only seen it for off-track violations and collisions with other vehicles. The penalties are generally scaled to the degree of offense (1 second, 5 seconds, etc).
