Linear half — half the available points scale with your share of the best distance15.2 pts

0.5 × (5.0 km ÷ 13.85 km) × 84.4 = 15.2

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
