Wonderful initiative, let's hope for some packed and stacked servers leading up to and beyond this event.
yes it is still in beta , some tweaks still to do and then some more announcements about this and that but the rating and reputation points arent going to get reset so this is as a good time as any to have a little comp Andi
Georg is standing strong at the top of the rankings! But... has 'only' risked his ranking by racing twice in the ranked servers since this event was announced, which is twice more than Mr Lohner & Mr Stofmeel of the top 10 drivers! Thomas Schulz & Franz Christian Andreas have made it into the top 10 after improving their rank in his last 11 races, whilst Martin Petermann & Adam Pinczes go the other way having not raced since event launch. However, its the top 30 who get invited back so be sure to put that ranking on the line! It's also essential for those who have dropped out the top 30 to claw their way back in, like, Hector Garcia, Miso Stubna, Thomas Jansen, Reto Kropf & Dionysis Faraos! Just encouraging you to hit them ranked servers, no offence intended
Congrats to Jose on becoming the #1 driver on the ranked servers! The top 30 is where it's at though. You've got just over a week to improve, or secure, your ranking to be eligible for the Ranked MP Invitational!
Congrats to Franz Christian Andreas who was the #1 ranked driver in RaceRoom at 09h GMT today! Invites will be sent out to the top 30 this evening, so keep an eye on your inboxes so not to miss it. Finished just outside the top 30? If there are drivers who can't attend next Tuesday's showdown, subsequent drivers will be invited to the event.
