I used to get the same thing and tried many ways to prevent it when I switched to Frozen Rotors blanks seems to have solved the problem. I don't think changing the calipers will do much to change that. Add another minute to your cool down before you chock your car in the paddoc.

Light weight rotors (2 piece) are great and have a lot of benefits. But they do have drawbacks. Dump X amount of energy into half the mass of steel the temp change will double. Making warping or other damage much easier, but for race teams swapping rotors out daily is just the cost of doing business. I don't have the funds to do that so I'll stick with my cheap heavy rotors that last a few weekends.
