The flight

What the tracklog shows, and which crossings scored.

Crossed the start cylinder boundary 5 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: the start gate — the speed-section clock runs from the gate, not from the crossing (FAI S7F §8.3.1).13:45:00

Measured along the optimized task line, up to the furthest point on course.

Best distance in class64.8 km
Linear half — half the available points scale with your share of the best distance70.1 pts

0.5 × (17.624 km ÷ 64.808 km) × 515.2 = 70.1

Difficulty half — rewards flying past stretches where many pilots landed132.7 pts

The difficulty curve is built from where the whole field landed out (FAI S7F §11.1.1).

Time points

0 pts
Time points are only awarded to pilots who reach the end of the speed section.

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

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