I know coming in first place gets you the heroic dragon but once you get passed lap 15 all have won them. The 2nd and 3rd place racers have got the same prizes as the 1st place. Can there be some kind of special reward for a 1st place for putting in that special effort and expense(gems) to win the race?

Just a thought

No otherwise they may take away the benefit of giving us the prize at lap 15, not to mention all the special rewards for reaching each lap. FYI closing this as the race is discussed HERE. IMO!
