Opposition display thing

You know the opposition display thing on the right hand side of the screen in a race? The one that shows you who is in what position? In B-Spec this can be chagned to show the cars, not the drivers' names. How do I do this in A-Spec?
 
That's... inconsistent

Yes, it is. It's also pretty useless since the names of the AI drivers are never the same, so the only information you are being given is that someone is ahead or behind of you, with no clue in what car. And the position you know anyway.

The only application for this "leaderboard" is online, where you can derive, if someone is a good or bad driver from driver-name.

Its made even more useless in a one make race. Well actually, the entire leaderboard is useless in those. I figure that the leaderboard may be useful in championship series if you were somehow not able to blow out the opposition. Problem is, save for the FGT Championship, there are no races where this would be vital.
 
If only this list could efficiently display the relative time gap to other drivers. I miss this most when racing online and you know that first place is beyond your grasp in any case, but can you hold on to the position you do have, or can you gain a place or two? No freakin' idea, is the answer, unfortunately.

GT4's B-Spec had that system down perfectly. Unfortunately the re-vamp of the B-Spec program made that monitor cease to exist.👎

This. I want it so effin much!
 
I find the leaderboard useful in endurance races. But I would love to be able to switch between names and vehicles. They could use the same controls that they use for traction control, ABS and that other stuff.

And I also want split times.
