What's the deal with Chequered Flag?

What's the deal with "Chequered Flag". I wondered if something was up when I couldn't pass any cars. I downloaded the second best MARP replay and watched it - that person didn't pass any cars either. Is this something wrong with the emulation or what? Why does the game even offer bonuses for places 1 - 6 when you'll finish a race no better than what you started it??? Why does it even bother to show you what placed you're in?
