Dirt Rally with Logitech G29 and H gear shifter

[LUCABOS 0]

I just started playing with Dirt Rally and often I go out of route and I have to reset the car. When I return to the track I have to put the gear in neutral position, then accelerate and enter the first gear. I lose at least 2-3 seconds and in any case it seems to me not a natural thing. If I leave directly the first gear no way to restart the car, it is stuck. It happens to you?
