Tyres are cold at race start with formation lap turned off - after 1.07 patch

Hello,

I just downloaded the 1.07 patch on Steam and started a Grand Prix event at Portimao to test it out - as usual for me, I had the formation lap turned off.
When I started the race, I noticed that I was REALLY struggling with overall grip throughout the whole first lap. Halfway through the lap, I notice my tyre temps are really low. I decided to start the race again, figuring it was just a small bug -  turns out that now, I start the race with 60-70°C tyres (both carcass and surface). I probably don't need to explain where the problem lies here.
Given how this wasn't an issue before today's patch, I think this is due to the "Tyres are already up to temperature before the Formation Lap" bug fix.

Additionally (although this could be down to my G29 pedals having quite a bit of wear on them), the in-game gas pedal is already at 100%, when IRL I'm only at maybe 70-80%  - I thought this was down to me having increased the Throttle Saturation, but I still have the same issue even if I set that to 0.
