The latest Mario Kart World European online event is speeding in to warm up a cold February! Get ready for your next chance to claim the top spot in the European February Fast Lane.
What is the European February Fast Lane?
Starting at 15:00 (UK time) on Saturday, February 21st and running until 18:00 (UK time), Mario Kart World players across Europe can take part in this online event.
The European February Fast Lane takes place under the following conditions:
When the event begins, each player will start with a versus rating of 3,000. Depending on your position at the end of each race, your ranking will then go up or down. Keep placing as high as possible to drive up your ranking and stay ahead of the competition.
You can race as much or as little as you like within the three-hour time period. Once the time is up, that’s it – the event will be over and your rating total will be locked in!
How to participate
To take part in the European February Fast Lane, you’ll need to have Mario Kart World (updated to the latest version via a free software update), a Nintendo Switch 2 console connected to the internet, and any active Nintendo Switch Online membership (including a 7-day free trial). Then just follow these instructions:
- From the game’s main menu, choose Online Play

If you complete the above before the event begins, you’ll be able to practise under the same rules. Use the time to hone your skills before the real thing starts!
What happens after the event?
Roughly one week after the event, a leaderboard will be published on this website listing the 100 highest-rated players. Make it into that list and you’ll enjoy some serious bragging rights!
Don’t think you’ve got the skills to hit the top 100, but still want a place in the spotlight? Then maybe you can be the best Toad, Waluigi or even Cow! The highest ranked player for each character will appear in a special leaderboard, so pick your favourite and do your best!
Head for the starting line and good luck, everyone!
