4.3 VALIDITY OF A CHAMPIONSHIP
4.3.3 The title of champion shall be awarded only if there have been at least 6 separate valid tasks in the class, and at least one task of each type (navigation, economy, precision) has been valid.
Reason
A feeling of panic arises when we talk about the validity of a championship, but with our current rules a championship with only 6 precision tasks would be valid, as long as there is no way to enforce the task proportions.
Strong limits could be imposed, like +/-5% of the established percentage of each task type, but this proposal only tries to avoid nonsense championships.
