Your place is based on your overall time and not what place you are in when you cross the finish line on the 3rd lap. If you were lagging behind everyone else the majority of the match, you could be in 1st position when you cross the line and still not get 1st place overall.

That would be really weird to judge races like that... average position shouldn't matter, just the order you finish...
-
It's not average, it's total time combined from all 3 laps.
-
Then how is it not the same as order to the finish line?
-
Because you could be in last place the whole race, 10 seconds behind the whole group, then take first at the last second by taking shortcuts and hitting not every boost gate, and your time would be still more than the person who was in first the whole race right up to the last second. He would take first." Even though he came in 2nd by a hair.

That doesn't make sense. If you all start at the same time then the first to the finish should always have the shortest total race time... I wonder if some if this is because of the distributed nature of the game. Your console showed you as something but the game does a final check if everyone's total ginal times and ranks placing according. .. think of ut as 6 loosely-synchronized simulations running in parallel. They may diverge a little so you check final times at the end. Just a guess of course...
