That's true in some situations, but not all. Hurdles only count over your half of the overpass, placing counts on both halves. There are going to be scenarios where you have the time to hurdle on your half, drive halfway around the track, and place (where you wouldn't have time for another full lap to hurdle). That's a 12 point difference right there, rather than just 4.

edit: Optimizer just beat me.
