If you are the first one to the flag you should get the 1st place reward, no ifs, ands or buts. It shouldn't depend on who can spam the F key the fastest or your ping. It's ridiculous, and frankly, enough is enough.
If you can't find a way to ensure the one that get there first gets 1st place then scrap the event and come up with something else. It's a continual slap in the face every time the person who is a hair behind me gets the 1st place flag despite not being first, and I get last place because I can't get to the other flags fast enough, and honestly I'm sick and tired of this BS.
Enough is enough. Find a better way and do it right or don't do it at all.
And while you're at it you might also want to come up with a better way to queue for the PvE race so that other people can't jump the line and force you to fail and have to run back to the contact. More BS in this event. Again, fix it and make it work right or replace it with something you can actually get to function properly.
