- The glider who has the slope to the right has priority.
- Pilots must cross by the right side ("As on our continental roads...").

8- Calculation of results and Ranking : 
- For each race, the pilot with the best time will score 1000 points from which are deducted penalty points.
- A crash during a race gives a null score to the pilot of this given race.
- For a field landing points are computed according to the distance travelled.
- For the final ranking, only the best 6 results are taken into account.
- The task being completed or not, the pilot must upload its .ftr file at the Condor Club before  11:30 pm UTC is 01h30 am Paris time, the day after the race. After this time has elapsed, the pilot will be ranked as "crashed" with 0 points.
To do that, the pilot shall use the link at the very bottom of the page of the Condor Club briefing that points to the page :  Condor Club/MOROCCO TOUR 2017/General Ranking/Competition Day n°x/Race Results. This is on this page that .ftr are to be uploaded.
- In case of absence of ,ftr or any ,ftr that does not indicate the end of a normal flight (field landing, crash or terminated circuit) the pilot will be considered as crashed. It is up to the pilot to check its hardware / Condor configuration. (Somehow, as the pre-flight inspection in real life.)
- In case of disconnection, the pilot shall continue the flight offline without delay and upload the .ftr file at the Condor Club when the flight is completed.
- Even if the case of field landing or crash, each pilot must upload the .ftr file at the Condor Club before  11:30 pm UTC is 01h30 am Paris time, the day after the race.
- A disconnected pilot shall continue the flight offline without interruption, as if it were still online. For obvious reasons of fairness to pilots still connected, use of the "Pause" button is not allowed.
- A disconnected pilot must upload the .ftr file at the Condor Club IMMEDIATELY after the end of its flight, otherwise it will be deemed to have misused the “Pause” button and will not be listed for this race.
- A disconnected pilot unable to upload its .ftr file is considered as crashed, as it is not possible to prove that he has completed his flight.
- A pilot not having selected the right glider defined for the race will not be considered as having participated to the race and will not be listed for this race.
- Any personal computer crash leading to an interrupt of the race is considered as a pilot crash and gives a null score to the pilot for this race.

- Once the race is started and because of a server failure a disconnection occurs, the involved pilots shall continue the flight offline without delay and upload the .ftr file as indicated above.

9- Claims :
- Claims and inquiries by PM (forum Private Message) or Condor Club or email will not be processed!
- Any claim must be submitted under the appropriate topic, not later than 48 hours after the start of the race :
