Every sport has its particular scoring. For more information on other sports, check out the MISC section on our rules page.
Overall Qualification Winner: Graded according to the driver who finishes first in qualifying. Penalties do not impact grading.
Finishing Position: Graded based on the standings after at the completion of the race. Penalties or adjustments made after the completion of the race will not impact grading. If a driver does not finish, they will be graded according to their listed position on the official leaderboard.
For example, if Denny Hamlin has a finishing projection of 3.5 and he finishes in second place, people that selected "lower" would win those selections because 2 is lower than 3.5.
