GRIDDING
Round 1 will be gridded differently to the rest of the series (either “No gridding”, “gridding based on speed of registration” or “gridding based on last year’s results”, or “gridding based on UCI points” or “gridding based on national series results”)
After Round 1 the races will be gridded based on results which will be compiled into a series table.
Riders will not be gridded if they have not pre-registered.
