Typically, the race will open on a Tuesday or Wednesday and will lock two hours before the race starts. You should be able to see the qualifying results prior to the race locking.

Points
At the beginning of each race, each entrant is awarded 150 points to start. Points are deducted for every position each of your 10 drivers finish from where you predicted them to finish (e.g. if you picked Juan Pablo Montoya to finish 10th and he wins, you would score -9). Points are always negative. Bonus points are awarded for correctly picking a driver's finishing position. Higher bonus points are awarded for picking the winner than picking 10th position. The bonus points for this competition are as follows:

Position	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10
Bonus Points	20	18	16	14	12	10	8	6	4	2

The most points you can score for each race is the 150 starting points plus all the bonus points, being 260 points.

Additional Information

• Any driver that does not qualify for the race will be considered to finish 44th (1 above the 43 entrants). As noted, the list of drivers to pick from includes those that have to qualify, so it's up to you to change after qualifying before the race locks.
• After you have picked your drivers for the first race, they will automatically copy forward race-to-race. Therefore, if you just want to pick your drivers once and see how you do, that works, you picks will be the same each week.
• If a driver is copied forward and doesn't enter the following race, it will score -44 points.
