Two ways I've been able to replicate the loss of throttle issue:

First way: Pressing and holdiing where the throttle would appear while the loading splash screen is displayed, before the race has begun. This is quite easy to replicate and usually happens in WTTT or a special event where I am doing multiple replays and trying to click through the opening sequence too quickly. Solutions are either to be patient, or do the mulitple tapping at the start while wating on the grid.

Second way: Not certain about this one but ironically is linked to the "solution" to the above. I have noticed the multiple tapping at the start occasionally seems to cause the non-responsive screen. It is as if there is a backlog of screen touches, like when your computer freezes up then plays out your last inputs in slow motion until it catches up. I believe this can happen when too many screen touches are registered quickly, but it is harder to replicate. I have had it happen at the start of the race when using the multiple tap method, and also during a race when pulsing the throttle through a long corner.

I don't think these are the only causes. I also often get the loss of brakes at the start of the race (first corner), and haven't found a reliable way to replicate it. In these cases the throttle was responsive off the line.
