 To see which hotlap combinations must be driven for a rank, please refer to the "RANK INFO" link in the middle of the Ranks tab. You will already be on the rank list with just one required hotlap driven, but more driven hotlaps will always get you higher in the list (up to a maximum of 18 driven hotlaps of course, in case of MHR and Car ranks). The Benchmark is 103% of the WR of that hotlap. Your hotlap times are then compared with these Benchmark times. The resulting difference is called your handicap.

 * the handicaps of these counted hotlaps are then summed to form the handicap for a country<br>
 * additionally, points are awarded for every hotlap - 1st place gets 10 points, 2nd gets 9 points, etc. This way the nations chart gets an interpretation from a different point of view.

 '''Racer details:''' In this part of the Hotlaps window, you can see the fastest hotlaps of a certain racer. Furthermore, each hotlap has a time comparison to the current World Record and to the Benchmark, which equals the WR + 3% (example: On a track with a WR of 2 minutes, the Benchmark would be 2:03.600).
-'''Ranks:''' The Ranks tab displays several types of hotlapping ranks, which are made up of all the hotlaps that have been uploaded. There are 3 main categories :
