Here is an exact replica of my suggestions to time penalty changes that I also posted on Reddit below:

___________________________________________________________________________

In my opinion, the following is a much more reasonable system instead of buffing the current one:

​ That's all for now. I really hope FM will see this and seriously consider it.
 * For every 0.1s off-track, add 0.5s to time penalty
 * This way, an accidental graze off track in the midst of a good run won't force players to restart. For a track like Spa, it is hugely frustrating to finally nail a string of good turns but accidentally skims off-track and immediately gets 4 seconds added
 * For example, people cutting the last chicane at Spa would now receive a penalty of around 10 seconds
 * When a penalty is applied, show it in one of the corners instead of right on top of the car so it is less distracting
 * If these changes can't be implemented, then I would rather want an instant DQ and have the split time back. I'm sure a lot of people already felt this way
 * Also it would be nice to add an option of disabling the ghost. It is already much better than before that it gets dimmer when it's close, but it could still, occasionally, be a distraction
 * I think the current system for collision is fine as it is, unless it proves to be a problem later on
