I've been playing online a lot this week - and can't help noticing something odd about the Fastest Lap badge ... like it usually seems to go to the person who comes last.
Now to start with I figured that this was because the people who fall to the back are racing by themselves, and are thus able to pick up all the speed boosts, take their own lines etc. and get faster times - but today I raced on Sol 2 Reverse - which is my least favourite track ... was racing against people with online rankings in their 40s who just vanished off into the horizon while I was bouncing off the walls - I came dead last on two or three occasions, and still got the fastest lap badge. I am 99.9% certain that I wasn't fastest.
Is this a known error in the game, or do I have I warped space and time so that I can consistantly put in fastest laps despite being slowest?
