here is a video to exemplify:
Are you saying that you pressed the y button and nothing happens? It happened to me and now I know you have to turn around and go through the checkpoint.
Yeah, that definitely should have respawned you back before the checkpoint.
Seems to me there’s a known issue where if you press Y in multiplayer, it doesn’t rewind you, and cancels your respawn. I saw a couple guys streaming together a few days back and one of them taunted the other to press Y to win instantly, and the other guy laughed knowingly, and didn’t take the bait. So I think this might be a thing. But I’ve never tried it myself.
I missed a checkpoint last night, and got the prompt to rewind, and quickly thought, ‘wait, I’m in multiplayer, why would I rewind.’ So I didn’t rewind, and respawned back at the checkpoint. Still lost the race, so the result is the same regardless.
Maybe they need a future update to fully disable rewind in multiplayer and remove the prompt.

Same happened to me. I supposedly missed a checkpoint (the one in video 00:53) although I’m 80% certain, that this checkpoint wasn’t there on lap 1 (some rendering issue or…), because I remember myself wondering, how did I managed to cut so much in that turn, and soon enough I saw the missed checkpoint message and the “fun” times began. From 1st place to last in few seconds. As you can see I drove through all the checkpoints and it still didn’t count. Maybe, if I had turned around right away to go back to that missed (ghost?) checkpoint, it would have made a difference.
If anyone is wondering, what happens, when you press the Y button, then check out 00:15 in the video.

(don’t mind the driving, because I was trying to figure out, what the hell is happening)
