Top: the Para-Panini is a glider in Mario Kart Tour, depicting a sandwich.
Bottom: in 2022, Reddit user "robertg500" contacted Mario Kart Tour customer support to ask them about the composition of the sandwich, to which the customer support actually responded with an exact recipe.

On October 4th, 2023, Mario Kart Tour received its final content update. After this day, no more new tours would come to the game, with it instead cycling through past tours. I didn't respect the game all that much, but I do think it's a bit sad we won't get to see any new racers or alternate outfits for a while now...
Or will we?
We've received intel from an anonymous source that this spring, something BIG is coming to Mario Kart Tour. A brand new tour, with new content, to commemorate the season! I'll let the leaked description speak for itself...
"He is risen, and so is #MarioKartTour! Celebrate Easter with the all-new Vatican Tour! Race through the sacred streets of the pontiff's home turf in the new Vatican Velodrome track, and save up your Rubies to nab Kamek (Pope) in the Spotlight Shop- along with a whole host of communion-tastic goodies! This heavenly tour is set to grace your mobile device this season!"
We even got an early look at Kamek's new Pope alt! A miter really suits him, don't you think? Our sources tell us that his unique trick animations include performing the sign of the cross, and sprinkling holy water around him! Even in the heat of a race, Kamek (Pope) loves his neighbor and blesses his fellow competitors!
Kamek (Pope)'s signature kart is the Turbo Tabernacle! What, did you expect a Popemobile? Don't you know the Vatican doesn't like that nickname? I can't believe you would expect such blasphemy here. Our leaker was kind enough to provide this mockup, showing its wafer wheels as well as the new glider, the INRI Scroll! With this glider, you can feel like YOU'RE the one being crucified!
We hope you're as excited as we are for the upcoming Vatican Tour! It would be easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than it would be to resist playing Mario Kart Tour this Easter season!

I love all the fun character designs from Mario Kart Tour but this has to be my favourite;
Look at his waistcoat! Thoes stone boots. I just love the attention to detail.

Mario Kart Tour uses such low-resolution textures for the low-quality models of racers (which are loaded when they are far away from the camera) that in some cases, their faces become so blurred as to be barely recognizable as faces.
Top: Pauline's high-quality model, visible when playing as her or when she is close to the camera. Her facial texture here is 128x128 pixels.
Bottom: Pauline's low-quality model. Here, her facial texture is 16x16 pixels.
