In race 5.1 you can also just wait for about 50 seconds right at the start before you take off. You'll have an open road for the first lap and nearly the whole second lap too. So you practically don't have to worry about damage for your first and your fastest lap (lap 2). After that you can stay at 16th place, 1st place won't lap you. This way, all you have to do is not bump into the 15th place car or the wall.
