World Championship Qualifying Rounds are held from the end of the previous season through to a few weeks before the 1st WC Semi-Final
Grids are formed based on these qualifying points, with the top point scorer choosing their preferred Semi-Final venue and starting on pole.
The remaining drivers are then split based on WCQR Points, 1-4 : Semi A, 2-3 : Semi B, 5-8 : Semi A, 6-7 : Semi B and so on.
Currently 24 cars for the grid for each Semi-Final. Drivers cannot swap Semi-Finals and are replaced by Reserves if unable to grid.
