Reason
The current formula for a combined Nation Score for paramotor classes favours single-seat classes PF1 and PL1, three times over the two-seater classes PF2 and PL2 and the female class PF1f. That made sense at a time when the frequency in favoured classes few times outnumbered those less favoured. These proportions have changed. There was a time when PL1 class pilot number barely exceeded 10, PF2 reached 7 crews, and PL2 were close to none. After a time, in the last World Championships in Thailand, the PL1 class consisted of 25 pilots, PF2 was no one at all, and the number of PL2 crews increased to 15 (still scored with 1 crew only) in national scoring.
The proposed change bounds the number of pilots/crews included in the national classification (1, 2, or 3) to the number of actually participating in a given class. This proportional system is fairer and encourages more attendance in all classes.
