Linear half — half the available points scale with your share of the best distance40.4 pts

0.5 × (5.0 km ÷ 19.7 km) × 318.6 = 40.4

Measured with the classic squared-distance leading coefficient (S7F §11.3.1, the hang-gliding / GAP2016–2018 variant).

Arrival points

0 pts
Arrival points reward crossing the end of the speed section early relative to the other pilots who reached it.0 pts
