Every chat message now shows your rank and current ELO in its own color — and it updates live after each race without rejoining.

The achievements system has been expanded with 17 new unlockables across all categories, plus a brand new Fastest Laps category.

• —Fastest Laps — four new achievements for getting the fastest lap in a race: Quick Charlie (1), Rapid Fire (10), Speed Merchant (25), and Lightning (50).
• —Higher ELO tiers — Speed God (1700), Superhuman (1800), and Alien (2000) added above the existing Legend tier.
• —Extended streaks — Invincible (10 wins in a row), Flow State (10 consecutive podiums), and The Machine (20 consecutive podiums).
• —More milestones — Road Warrior (500 races), Centurion & Overlord (100/200 wins), Podium Hero & Podium Legend (50/200 podiums), Speed Demon (track records on 10 maps), Dynasty King (20 tournament wins).

Three new features are live on the website today.

• —ELO History Chart — every profile page now shows an interactive chart of your ELO progression across your last 100 races. Hover over any point to see the map, finish position, and rating change for that race.
• —Head-to-Head Compare — visit /compare to pit any two drivers against each other. See career stats side by side and a breakdown of every race you shared. You can also hit the Compare button directly on any player's profile page to instantly compare yourself with them.
• —Player of the Week — the homepage now crowns the standout driver of the past 7 days, scored by ELO gain, wins, and podiums.

Mini-tournaments now run automatically inside the public room. When 3 or more players are present at the start of a race, a tournament kicks off and the next 5 consecutive races count for points.

• —F1 points — 25·18·15·12·10·8·6·4·2·1 for positions 1–10, plus +1 bonus point for the overall fastest lap of the race.
• —DNF — a retirement scores 0 points for that race but you stay in the tournament.
• —Join mid-tournament — late arrivals are added to the standings from the race they first participate in, with no points carried back.
• —Live standings — after each race the room announces updated standings and the website updates in real time.
• —Profile stats — registered players accumulate tournament wins on their profile page.
• —Achievements — six new tournament achievements to unlock, including Grand Slam (perfect win) and Maximum Attack (26 pts every race).
