Instead, the player should be asked to enter the circle and wait. Once the player is motionless inside the circle, we start a visible countdown for the race. If the player moves out of the circle, we re-start the countdown. We don't fail the race unless the player leaves the circle more than a couple of times.

I so agree with this! I was like "WHAT!?" when I instantly failed the mission by rushing to the circle cause the dialogue mentioned nothing about it hahahaha
