I would be glad to see the fastest lap of the race always in the top right or left.

Then you could see which time to beat if you wanna have the FL.
Maybe with the name of the driver!?

I'd be concerned that would put too much emphasis on the fastest lap, turning races into hotlapping competitions instead of focusing on the main objective of gaining/holding position. Depends on the combo I suppose.

Although I do enjoy going for the fastest lap if I've spun out or crashed. It's nice to redeem yourself after a mistake with having the fastest lap at the end.

LFS tells you who's just put in the fastest lap anyway.

Sounds unlikely.

+1 to the OP.

No i don't think so. It's not more like in real racing. Drivers there in a race will also first concentrate on the race and not try to get FL.

It would be just an information who is pushing hard(fastest at the moment) or something like that. :)

And that LFS tells you is not enough, it is only for a short moment and you can not read in every situation. And in my age even not remember after a few laps :D

Maybe it could be done with a button!? You press "l" for eg, and then the FL will be displayed again for a few seconds....

Why not just place a symbol or highlight the time in the finishing order?

It's already highlighted in the finishing order, but the point of this suggestion is to be able to see it during the race.

Oh, and a +1 from me too.
