(Skip to 2:46 for the start of the race, or 11:30 for the incident itself)

Through trying to complete this game's Medallions mode, I stumbled across a strange bug: the AI on the Texas Infield track will not pit under green flag conditions. And so, the 42 AI drivers will keep driving until they run out of fuel, whereupon much like in certain randomly-generated tracks from F-Zero X, they will dive off of the track and crash into one another on the apron, like the mythical lemmings of phony Disney documentaries.

Obviously this oversight will inevitably lead to an easy win, but there is a downside: it more or less makes the track's final Medallion challenge - lapping 5 cars - impossible, because to be lapped a car has to be running on the track, not in the pits or out of the race entirely. (Which sucks because lapping 5 cars on a road course is hard enough as it is!)
