Basically, we now have only 2 sessions left (out of 5) to try and achieve our best time, and it seems that that's not enough time to actually "learn" the track. In fact, I achieved my best time on the 5th/final session, but it wasn't counted in the final scores.

Can't we count sessions 2/3/4 or anything except the first one? Not complaining, just asking/suggesting.
As you get experience, and move out of the beginner group, that 1st session will turn into a normal session, instead of a lead-follow.

We do the first 3, because a lot of people like to leave around 2pm or so; we want to make sure that they still have a chance to collect any prizes they might win
