I don't see it as a longer method. For one, I don't have to service, so that saves literally hours on the entire LTS (or the time spent watching ads to speed up servicing, which is still significant). Secondly, the races aren't dramatically longer when you manage bots, plus that's all player-driven as well. If you want to make the race take an extra long time, you can. Or, you can get to the lead and stay ahead of the bots while leaving them alone and just slow or stop at the finish to maintain a slight lead. This will add a little time compared to racing full-out with a serviced car, but maybe a few minutes per Cup Race. If nothing else, that might counter the time spent watching ads to speed up servicing. So, it's a wash at worst, and a time-saver at best.

Point is, when you manage bots, you're in control of what happens largely. I prefer that.
