Although we leave in sport I have noticed that when I leave car say overnight and drive again it seems more sluggish. Then if I cycle through back to sport again it seems much quicker. Does it reset itself I wondered back to normal?

Nope found answer in brochure it resets to normal each time your turn off!!! See below from brochure

When the engine is switched off it will store the driving profile that was selected when the ignition was turned off. When restarted, the engine and the gearbox will start in their Normal mode. To return the engine and gear to your desired mode, reselect the corresponding driving profile.

Mine does this too. It's clearly no longer in sport mode as the throttle changes.

It does however still show that it is (button red and sport profile selected on screen). Seems odd.

Agree mine same. If I toggle back through to sport it changes throttle response you can tell

It’s to protect the engine on cold start.

With a CUPRA the engine always starts in normal mode even though the Cupra button is lit up. Once the sport/CUPRA mode is deselected the engine will be in that mode.
