The flight

What the tracklog shows, and which crossings scored.

This task has no start (SSS) turnpoint — the first turnpoint is treated as the start.
Crossed the start cylinder boundary 27 times. The scored start is the latest crossing from which the flight still makes its best run along the course — re-starting supersedes an earlier start, while simply flying back through the cylinder later in the task changes nothing.

Day quality — points on offer

Task validity 99.3% of a perfect day, so 993 of 1000 points were available.

Launch validity — did enough registered pilots launch?100%
Distance validity — did the field fly far enough relative to the nominal distance?100%
Time validity — was the winning time long enough relative to the nominal time?99.3%

Time points

373.2 pts
Time points use the 5⁄6 speed-fraction exponent (the current FAI S7F, S7F §11.2).
Your speed section time1:28:33
Fastest time in class1:25:04
Time points fall off with the gap to the fastest time373.2 pts

speed fraction = max(0, 1 − ((T − Tbest) ÷ √Tbest)^5⁄6) = 0.9191; × 406 available = 373.2 (times in hours)

Leading points

0 pts
Leading points reward flying out front during the speed section — the pilot with the best leading coefficient takes all available leading points, others fall off with the gap.0 pts
Measured with the classic squared-distance leading coefficient (S7F §11.3.1, the hang-gliding / GAP2016–2018 variant).

Arrival points

20 pts
Arrival points reward crossing the end of the speed section early relative to the other pilots who reached it.20 pts

Total

Distance + time + leading + arrival, minus penalties806.2 pts

412.9 + 373.2 + 20.0 ≈ 806.2 — the points above are shown rounded to 0.1; the total is rounded from their exact sum.
