The flight
What the tracklog shows, and which crossings scored.
Crossed the start cylinder boundary 3 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.
Start time taken: gate 2 of 4 — the last start gate at or before the crossing. The speed-section clock runs from the gate, not from the crossing (FAI S7F §8.3.1).13:50:00
Completed the task — full task distance is credited.
Day quality — points on offer
Task validity 90.17% of a perfect day, so 901.7 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?90.17%

Your speed section time1:30:08
Timed from your 13:50:00 start gate to the end of the speed section (FAI S7F §8.7) — you crossed the start at 13:50:02.
Fastest time in class1:03:47
Time points fall off with the gap to the fastest time180.5 pts
speed fraction = max(0, 1 − ((T − Tbest) ÷ √Tbest)^5⁄6) = 0.509; × 354.7 available = 180.5 (times in hours)
Leading points
46.6 ptsLeading 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.46.6 pts
Measured with the classic squared-distance leading coefficient (S7F §11.3.1, the hang-gliding / GAP2016–2018 variant).
Arrival points
23.6 ptsArrival points reward crossing the end of the speed section early relative to the other pilots who reached it.23.6 pts
