2020 Ranking Examples
We have analysed the last 9 MSG events to give an indication of where you might want to look for your “ability” category. The outcomes are listed below. The process used was to calculate your average lap time and then sort by firstly lap time and secondly number of laps. We have then simply split the outcome into equal segments and called them 1, 2, 3, and 4 for men and 1, 2 & 3 for women. This is broad brush strokes and you may not agree with the assessment. That is your prerogative. However, remember the objective here is to group riders by relative ability, to enhance racing and for safety purposes. So please try to deploy that most uncommon of traits when you decide: Common sense
