Straining at the leash

Since owning the S8 I've noticed that when the gearbox is in Drive and I'm waiting at the traffic lights the car is VERY keen to push forward when I'm on the brakes. Feels like its straining and the torque is pushing hard to break traction. I have a Range Rover Sport with an auto box and it's nowhere near as keen.

I know I should be in Park but does anyone else experience this?
