I should have checked my facts before posting but where is the fun in that? Are you sure it’s 20 minutes and not 18? I know some players from the early days don’t have the three mechanic limitation; I’d be surprised if the Drive refill time also varied.

I think part of the confusion about the refill time comes from the subtle fact that the first Drive takes a maximum of 12 minutes to refill.

You can best see this for yourself after completing one or more Time Trials, using Retry until you have no Drive left. Pressing the Drive or Retry buttons will open the Drive pop-up to show the time to refill the next Drive – you will see it’s under 12 minutes.

After the first Drive unit has refilled the second will start counting down from 18 minutes. Press Later to exit the pop-up, then Retry to use the newly filled Drive for another Time Trial. But before pressing Continue to start the Time Trial, check the Drive pop-up again – it will now be counting down from 12 minutes!
