Unfair multiplayer penaties

I'm not a fast driver at the moment and actually prefer to start at the rear of the field as I can hang back at the start and avoid the carnage and pass several people as they run wide or crash in the first few corners.  The problem with this though is that often I will have to drive around people who are stacked 3 wide, facing the wrong direction in the middle of the track or in a corner and as a consequence have to either go on the grass or cut the corner just to avoid the carnage.
What happens is that I then get a message for unfair overtake and need to give the place back which is just crazy.  Secondly it gives about 10 seconds to do so which is nearly impossible if the person I passed is still on the track facing the wrong way.

The other one is as someone else has said, when my safety rating gets lowered due to getting slammed from behind and pushed into a wall where I lose my front wheel. 

Once I'm a lap in, I really enjoy mulitplayer however the constant first lap retirements are a little frustrating.  Perhaps when I'm faster I can start on pole and stay in front.  Where would the fun in that be though, might as well time trial.

Well, starting on pole in baku, spa or monza is also 99% certain guaranteed divebombers who use everyone as their brake in stead of their brakepedal
