How the
Rank Works
We’ve put a lot of work into the ranking system, below is how it all shakes out in practice.
One rank, for life
You hold one rank, whatever you follow. Someone who only calls Formula 1 and someone who calls all six championships climb the same ladder.
Under the rank sits a rating. It moves only when a round is settled, and nobody sees it: tables show your rank and your call sign.
What moves it
Every settled round scores you out of 100. Beat the middle of the field that weekend and you climb. Fall short and you drop. Match it and nothing moves.
No single round can move you more than 12 rating points, up or down. One lucky call cannot carry a season, and one bad weekend cannot end it.
Who you beat matters. Beat a stronger field and the move pays up to 1.2×. Beat a weaker one and it pays as little as 0.8×. Losses work the same way in reverse.
One round a week counts
Enter as many championships as you like. Each scores on its own table. Only one round a week counts toward your rank: the one you nominate.
Your first lock of the week is nominated for you. Move it to another round if you like, until the earliest of your races that week starts. Then it is frozen.
The ladder
Every rank costs the same, and no weekend can buy more than three: a perfect weekend against the field is three ranks, a good one is one or two, a middling one moves nothing. The table shows what a few ranks cost, and what a missed week costs when you are standing there.
Your first five counting weekends each earn a rank for playing, whatever the result, and those ranks are yours to keep. From there every rank is earned against the field.
| Rank | Rating to hold it | Step onto it | A missed week costs |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| 10 | 36 | 4 | 0 |
| 20 | 76 | 4 | 0 |
| 30 | 116 | 4 | 2 |
| 40 | 156 | 4 | 2 |
| 45 | 176 | 4 | 2 |
Missing weeks costs rank, at the top
A week with a round to play and no calls from you is a missed week. Below rank 30 it costs nothing: a rank you have earned is yours. From rank 30 up, the first 4 missed weeks in a row are free. Each one after costs half of what it took to climb onto your current rank, so about two missed weeks costs a rank, and it never takes you below rank 30.
Any call, in any championship, clears the streak. Weeks with nothing to play do not count.
Past the top
Cross the top and you start again from the bottom with a permanent prestige mark. The rating you crossed with carries over. Every rank then costs 15% more.
Reaching the top is meant to be rare: about one member in a hundred over three seasons.
Leagues and call signs
Everyone is on the global table. A league is the same scores among a smaller group. Joining one is free, and so is starting one.
