Men’s Series Round 7 - Points Hunter
The Points Hunter format aims to drive strategic decision-making from the moment the riders leave the pens. Teams will need to work together to determine whether to clock up points early or gamble on securing higher points at the end of the race where they could be left empty-handed.
The race will have 4 intermediate points locations, which award a different number of points, in addition to a limited number of points available at the finish line.
However, any riders that earn points at intermediate locations will also be removed from the race, so each rider can only score points once during the race. How will you best use your whole team to maximise your points tally?
Each rider will be awarded one feather PowerUp at the lap arch 4.4 km into the race, and will need to choose how to best strategically deploy this throughout the remainder of the race.
The finish line will only award points to a few riders, forcing teams to decide whether to race early or race to the end.
