Rolling Start on Feature Race - Comments Invited

A rambling chat between Gaz and Keith lead to an idea which we thought we should put out to the rest of the crew for some feedback.

Essentially, we take the standings order after the sprint cup races and reverse it. Then for the feature race, we add an extra “formation” lap and make sure that whoever won the sprint cup is at the back, whoever was last in the sprint cup is at the front. Nobody is allowed to overtake (apart from getting into position) until they are on lap two.

So now the start is controlled by the person who most needs the points and the person who has been the general winner on the day has to do the most work to get to the front. Could mix things up a bit!

It’s only an idea, so let’s hear what you think. Maybe we will try it out in one of the warm-ups next event?
