Why did PD place stop markers in the speed tests?

Why did PD place these yellow stop markers in the speed test feauture? I'm talking about those markers which end the test sessions. They only seem to cause problems in both testing modes. In accleration tests they prevent slower cars from reaching 0 - 200 km/h which means that you don't collect that specific data. In the maximum speed tests they prevent cars which have a long and steady acceleration to reach their full speed. For example, after 10 kilometers my M3 was still gaining speed but the yellow stop markers ruined the test. The game is already programmed to collect the data if we leave the session manually. In other words, the yellow markers are completely pointless and ruin this otherwise nice feature.

I see what you mean. Another thing, when you look at the results in the "results history" section, there is a spot for all forms of testing from top speed to g-force, yet they are tested on separate cards. Clearing a bad session test is a hassle as well, as it clears all session results from different car tests. PD gave us the track for the top speed job, but we can't use it all which makes me mad. I appreciate the feature, but it could be made better.
