Andrew,Thank you for publishing the results so quickly. The data from races look OK to me with one exception; Nick Marshall overall final position is not correct.

I think that may be because the final relative positions are based on points scored, John?

Nick, it may be possible; so, will check when the points are published.

You're right John - Nick's final position does look a bit odd. I suspect the spreadsheet isn't treating Nick's DNS in Round 1 correctly or it wasn't entered correctly. I shall investigate.
Positions for an event are based on speed, which is why I include that column. Event points are then based on positions. Then Championship positions are based on event points. Simples!

Nick was right when he said "I think that may be because the final relative positions are based on points scored, John?"
Nick did well in the second race so 12th place (=314 points and Times 0.7 = 220 points) John Lucian 15th second race( =229 points and Times 0.7 = 160 points)and 17th first race( =185 points and Times 0.3 = 55.5 points) a total of 216
Speed assumes a distance for first race (since Mick didn't start which is I think the fastest distance - might be slowest - not sure)
Hope that explains it

Thanks for the explanation Kevin. OK, the Comp Sec doesn't understand the points system  ...
Thanks also to Kevin for posting the http://www.bhpc.org.uk/Data/Sites/1/archive/events/events13/preston-13.html" rel="nofollow - Preston results and current http://www.bhpc.org.uk/Data/Sites/1/archive/events/events13/tables13.html" rel="nofollow - Championship tables on the website.

Hi there, can someone help me understand the scoring please?
For Preston it states I got 95 points and I'm just wondering how I got those points when I feel I did better than I did at Rhyl but got 214 there?
Thanks
Gio :-))

Points are awarded by position in class. First gets 1000 pts then this goes down in. Non-linear grade, so 1000, 900, 810,729,656, 590, 531. ...... All the way down to 1 for 54th place.
In the case of two rounds (so you race twice) they are worked out by allocating points to each round. So in Preston, in open class you came 22nd in round 1 (the two races in the round are joined) = 109 points, since this only counts for 30% of the points = 33 pts, round 2 you came 24 th so 89 pts and that counted for 70% so 62 pts. So total pts = 95 pts
in Rhyl there were less riders so you came 15th in round 1 and 16th in round 2. so ended up with more points due to higher position
You get points awarded in each class. Since there are few arm competitors it is not particularly useful to look in that class but the numbers say for Multitrack, or Unfaired are more meaningful to most people
Hope that helps
