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
Day quality — points on offer
Task validity 57.25% of a perfect day, so 572.5 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?57.25%
Time validity — was the winning time long enough relative to the nominal time?100%

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 distance33 pts
0.5 × (8.3 km ÷ 64.8 km) × 515.2 = 33
Difficulty half — rewards flying past stretches where many pilots landed41.6 pts
The difficulty curve is built from where the whole field landed out (FAI S7F §11.1.1).
Time points
0 ptsTime points are only awarded to pilots who reach the end of the speed section.
Leading points
48.9 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.48.9 pts
Measured with the classic squared-distance leading coefficient (S7F §11.3.1, the hang-gliding / GAP2016–2018 variant).
Arrival points
0 ptsArrival points reward crossing the end of the speed section early relative to the other pilots who reached it.0 pts
Total
123.6 ptsDistance + time + leading + arrival, minus penalties123.6 pts
74.6 + 0.0 + 48.9 ≈ 123.6 — the points above are shown rounded to 0.1; the total is rounded from their exact sum.
