Can someone clarify how the movement points work? I thought it was a maximum of 5 points either way for each driver you pick, but I can't work out how I only got 2 points though

I picked
Alonso: 0 points
Petrov: 5 points (He gained 7 positions from his grid position of 20)
Hamilton: 0 points (as he's not classified as a finisher)

but I only got 2 points? Also, the rules are a bit confusing, they seem to imply that you only get points for forward movement if your driver finishes in the top 10?

Drivers: Movement in the Race
Up to 5 points will be added to the total [HL="hh"]or taken away[/HL] per driver for positions gained or lost during the race.
As each player selects three drivers a player may receive or lose up to 15 points.

Move up from grid qualifying position *: .......... +1 point per position gained (maximum 5)
Move down from grid qualifying position*: ..... -1 point per position lost (maximum -5)

Example:
Player Fred choses Massa, Alonso and Trulli.
Massa qualifies in 1st, comes 2nd in race: 1 point lost
Alonso qualifies in 15th, comes 3rd: 5 pts (max)
Trulli qualifies in 11th, comes 5th: 5 pts (max)

Fred’s bonus: -1 + 5 + 5 = 9 points

**must be a classified finisher

===============================================
Why is it confusing?
You get points taken or added according to the movement in the race.

I will come to the rest later, got to deal with something

I've checked the spreadsheets and this has arisen because of the 5 position grid penalty that was awarded to Petrov some time after the end of qualifying, which is not reflected in the spreadsheets. Perhaps Colin can rule whether the original grid should stand or the final grid. Meanwhile I'll see how I can revise the results without screwing other stuff up.

All results will be taken after each session and calculated on that result as being a competition we cannot wait until FIA rulings.
So the result stands.

Ah, I didn't realise Petrov had been given a penalty as I missed Qualifying yesterday. That clears things up
