If you take a look at games like Asphalt 9, there's a thriving competitive scene with ranked lobbies, special seasons and end-of-season rewards.
In iGP, however, there... isn't. It focuses on your own league, which you either own or are a member of. That isn't really a good way to measure the best managers in the world, because in each top ranked league in the world, there's a couple of really good managers while everyone else is comparatively average.
I think iGP should improve its online race feature, allowing for better, more skilled managers to come into contact with each other more often, and fight on the track to prove who really is the best in the world at this game.
To do this, I recommend:
- More XP and reputation gained from online races.
- Separate (but lower paying) sponsors for online races.
- Cash rewards at the end of the season for the top 50 nationally-ranked managers (right now it's only top 100 in the world).
- Cash AND token rewards for the top 100 managers in the world.

Are you suggesting another type of quick race? For judging a great manager you have to do many races together, the car development is as important as the live race management.
I would be more interested in a redesign of the Hall of Fame. You won't find competitive leagues there, and it also doesn't do a good job representing the actual skill of the players.
Another way could be adding more research options in the league search, like average manager score, average attendance, number of managers, average leaderboard score and more.

I must say, I rather like this idea. Gene and Astro, you both make very good points. A more improved Hall Of Fame, tied not just to your league but to online races as well, is a better way of measuring this game's managers. Tying the two ideas together, maybe we could have the option of developing separate cars for league races and ranked multiplayer races, which would cost more in-game currency but yield potentially better results.
