New feature: Puzzle Racer

Hi lichess Its awesome the new update, but, why lichess does not put like chess.com the mode to use your profile photo when you play chess games?
Please consider making the anonymous players pool separate from the logged-in players pool. I prefer knowing who I'm competing against.
After playing a fair amount, some feature suggestions:
1. being able to review (missed) puzzles after the race - sometimes I mess up or get stuck, but cannot review afterwards
2. Maybe related to the above, shareable link to the race and being able to view all puzzles as they were played - don't see a way these races are shared at the moment... would be cool to see how the winner solved in real time, for example
3. some kind of personal performance grid like with regular puzzle dashboard that tracks over time - some puzzles I get instantly, and some take a while - would be nice to know which I have more difficulty visualizing quickly... so I can drill them
4. some kind of performance rating per race - some races are have very trivial puzzles, some more complicated - so a score of 60 for example is not equivalent across races. Not sure how this would be pulled off (maybe combo of solve time and puzzle rating.... and in relation to how fellow racers performed?), but being able to see you performed at "2100" or whatever level can help track if you are improving over time.
5. Based on above, players would then have a "puzzle racer" rating.... and then that can lead to rating limited races (e.g. over 2000s, under 1300). This would make races more fun and/or competitive (e.g. no fun as a 1300 being consistently smashed by 2200s... or a bunch of 2500s seeing who can get 100+ scores)

Thanks Lichess!
I have a question- Will there ever be some kind of levels so that players race against other players close to their level?
