It seems they just have excluded the still not banked gauntlet progress from the save data. I'm not sure about all details related to the tickets but it seems this tactics could be good enough to minimize the impact:

1. Cloud save after each boss challenge you won and just before spending the first ticke of a run. If needed play a short normal event to enable the save button.

2. Do NOT cloud save until winning the boss challenge! It is highly recommended to not play any event outside the gauntlet and to NOT watch videos etc. until this moment because if the game crashes in the middle of a race and the run gets terminated you'd like to restore and then you'd loss the RS and GC you gained from the other activities too.

So encapsulate gauntlet runs and do not mix them with the regular game. This way if you have to restore you'll have almost nothing to lose except the time you've spent playing at most 5 races (4 + a boss race provided you haven't retried) and the not so much RS you've earned in these few events.

If you cloud save after every race then cloud restore after failing you'll keep all the RS and the GCs you've earned but you'll also keep all the damage on the gauntlet cars and you'll have to wait for .new tickets!

If you lose then either pay RS and retry or cloud restore and start from after the last saved boss you've won. This way your tickets should not be wasted.
