EDIT:
i have a question about the divisions and points system:
example: john races in division 1, jack races in division 2. both are racing in the gt500 class -
1.will both john and jack earn the same number of points for winning the races in their respective divisions (excluding bonus points)?
OR
2. is it set up so that jack - who is racing in division 2 and so is effectively in the bottom eight of the gt500 class (as adjudged by the event's qualifying session) - earns the points that would be awarded to the eight place finisher of his class in a same-class race?
if it is option 1. the championship table will look odd, as, in effect, there are two winners of the gt500 class...also, somebody who comes in 3rd-in-class in division 1 will score less points than the winner of division 2.
if it is option 2. the second division drivers are limited to how many points they can earn, meaning the division 1 drivers will have a monopoly (or septopoly?) over the bigger share of the points
i'm confused - please help!
Points for 8th place = 1st in D2
1st in D2 also get the pole position bonus (I'm not 100% sure, but I think so)
No one get a "monopoly".. Everyone can qualify in to D1. This is the reason why we have qualifying, to decide in which division you will race.
We had this discussion before, and Masi_23 did change the number of points beeing given, to reduce the gap between divisions. But there must be a gap, since qualifying is held, and all drivers have the possibility to end up in D1.
