It is actually a bit over 1.6% - lift is the speed squared, but it doesn't do much difference in your example. In a glider with 50' - 80' span and a speed of 35 - 40 kts it is however very real, but again, it isn't a problem, you see the bank increase and the yaw string go sideways, and correct with a bit of rudder and opposite stick.
