Am I right in understanding that you cannot finish the race on the same color on which you started on your final round? For example, if I am on red and 4 spaces away from the finish line, playing a red 5 will not work? I could play, however, a blue 5 and go 4 spaces on red and then cross diagonally across the finish line to land on a blue?

To my knowledge you can play the same color on which you started that turn to cross the finish line - not only that, but you still get the bonus movement as well.

I'm not sure why you would think this. Why would crossing the finish line require you to not play a certain color?

My bad. I misread the rule:

"This is the only way you can finish on a track which is a different colour to the played card."

I thought the rules were talking about finishing the race, but this was only talking about the "play 1 card, move 1 space in any direction regardless of colour" rule.
