Race[]
The introduction of snow in Switzerland 3 has a minimal impact on racers. In contrast to the subsequent three levels, the snow is limited to grass coverage and appears merely as small puddles on various parts of the road. Driving over these puddles results in a gradual decrease in speed rather than a loss of control due to skidding.
Instead, this level challenges the player to drive at extremely high speeds, with rally cars reaching top speeds of 150 mph or more. The AI opponents are restricted to speeds of 138 mph, which remains unusually high compared to earlier levels. Some opponents are prone to slowing down around the puddles, allowing the more aggressive rivals to take advantage. This makes AI Roberts the team to beat in Switzerland 3, although Lumiere is also capable of holding the lead position. Their deceleration in the final lap allows the player to close the gap and secure victory.
