No, never had this issue on any other car. However, if I didn't have enough cool down time on track I would drive around a bit in the paddock or track access roads since the risk is more about heat soak while sitting really hot. Depending on where you run and at what time of year, you could wrap your most proximate suspension junctions in heat reflecting material and secure it with stainless wire. Just keep an eye on it.
