@ClareTrainor @kelsey-taylor @melanieimfeld Curious what you think about this one. I'm sort of inclined to iterate on this one a bit more and not include it as part of the 7.0.0 milestone.

@tristen I wonder if the changes could be as simple as a) eliminating the top of the flagpole or b) simplifying the checker pattern or maybe even removing it entirely?

Iterated on @tristen's nice design:

I think a larger single flag with a little bit of motion translates to a race or racetrack and is a bit more legible. Please let me know your thoughts @kelsey-taylor, @melanieimfeld, @tristen

@willymaps thanks for redrawing the icon! the change to just one flag makes sense to me. I modified it slightly to simplify the number of anchor points and to align the pole ends to the nearest pixel.
