Spectator Mode?

[zerojay]

Maybe I'm just thick... but I haven't seen any sort of spectator options in the game yet, but just a few days ago, I was in a match with a few people and someone seemed to be having internet problems. The race was quite laggy and getting back to the lobby took a long while.

Then I noticed something really quick that I've never seen before, but just for a second. Not enough for it to register to my brain. I thought nothing of it and waited a while for the next tournament to continue. Once again, connection issues but when I returned to the lobby, I saw a Spectate option sitting down at the navigation bar at the bottom of the screen. I don't remember seeing it before... and I haven't seen it since. It didn't appear to actually work either.

I was able to take this picture of it though.

Perhaps a feature we'll be seeing in a future update unless I'm just dumb and haven't noticed it all this time. Clickthrough for a larger size.

Any ideas?
