The odds of the whole field add up to 16 — the number of seats. That is what makes the points won exactly the points lost.

The stake follows your place: first of the qualifiers takes all of it, last qualifier 50 %. On the other side of the cut, missing by a hair costs the least.

A ranking never moves anyone more than 24 points.
