Which language would you prefer to play Car Town in?

English never had to fight for it: it opened at 100% on day one, stayed at 100% through day two, and was still doubling German's pace by the final stretch. Across 4,818 votes and 3 days, it closed at 50.3% — more than the next four languages combined.

The real story is the shape of the runner-up field, not a chase. Spanish settled for a distant 17.8%, Portuguese 10.3%, and the seven languages below German (4.5%) never broke 3% each. Romania's early sample skewed English male, hinting the base itself was already English-first before voting opened.

• Day-one lock · English held 100% of the vote on days 1 and 2
• Runner-up gap · English's 50.3% beat Spanish, Portuguese, Other and German combined
• Long tail · Bottom six languages each landed under 3% of the vote
