Description All-in-all the race form is made so drivers have the same driving time on the track, no matter if they are a novice or a super pro. This also gives more audience action, so people can support the lower and the top drivers - The audience knows that their driver will be there all day (and not just the novice for the 1/8 final). In this system the top pro, can't just drive 1 qual and then the A-final to win. They too have to drive the whole day, having the same hardware problem with tear-and-wear as the novice.
The race is build with a max of 40 drivers, so drivers have to sign up pretty early to make sure they can race all DMTC races.

The first part (of three) is the normal time qual to sort people into groups (with the same driving skils) for the point-race.
The second part is the point race. Here the best drivers don't have pole, but are placed in opposite pole, for closer race and more action.
The third part is a normal final part.

Please note the driver number (alias start number) change from Part 1 to part 2 and part 3.
So when you calculate the 8 best drivers from qual, they will be in "Race 1" starting 1-to-8, the 9-16 best drivers from qual wil start in "Race 2" as the xls shows. And here the tricky part startes, after first run - the opposite grid start is initiated, so the drivers battle more for points.
Also note that all the points from all 3 run-through of the pont-race have to be added together.
