## The easiest way to track racing standings

From go-kart leagues to motocross series to sim racing, Simple Standings lets you track championship points, race counts, wins, and podium finishes — then share the standings with your racing community. It does more than the table, too: tick Schedule to add games with dates, times, and venues that visitors can filter by team, and Statistics to track events entered, wins, and best results. Enable any combination — all three sit on the same shareable link.

## How racing standings work

A racing championship gives **points by finishing position** in each round and adds them up. Points tables are usually steep at the top, so a win is worth noticeably more than second. Many series add a point for pole position or fastest lap, and many let drivers **drop their worst round** or two.

A driver who does not start or does not finish usually scores nothing — which is why reliability decides as many championships as speed.

Ties are broken by **countback**: the driver with more wins goes ahead, then more second places, and so on.

## A worked example

Five drivers, four rounds, points 20-17-15-13-11 for the top five. Dash missed round 3:

| Driver | R1 | R2 | R3 | R4 | Races | Wins | Podiums | PTS |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Ace | 1 | 3 | 2 | 1 | 4 | 2 | 4 | 72 |
| Blaze | 2 | 1 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 1 | 3 | 65 |
| Cruz | 3 | 5 | 1 | 5 | 4 | 1 | 2 | 57 |
| Echo | 5 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 4 | 0 | 1 | 52 |
| Dash | 4 | 2 |  | 2 | 3 | 0 | 2 | 47 |

The R columns are finishing positions. Ace finished on the podium in every round, which is worth more than any single win.

Dash has more podiums than Echo but sits behind him, because the missed round scored nothing. With one dropped round, Dash would be on 47 and Echo on 41 (52 − 11), and the order would flip.

## Common racing tiebreakers

When drivers finish level, these are applied in order until the tie is broken:

1. **Most wins.**
2. **Most second places**, then thirds, and so on (countback).
3. **Best result in the final round.**

## How racing seasons are scheduled

- **A round calendar**, each round at a track or online, with practice, qualifying and one or more races.
- **Classes** racing separately — kart classes by engine and age, sim racing splits by skill — each with its own table.
- **Drop rounds** declared at the start of the season.

## Setting up racing standings in Simple Standings

Pick Racing when you create a league and the standings start with PTS, Races, Wins, and Podiums. New racing leagues sort by PTS. Every column can be renamed, removed, or added to. A computed column can read every typed-in column, plus any computed column to its left.

The preset is PTS, Races, Wins and Podiums, sorted by points. Add to totals adds each round’s points, a 1 for the race, and a 1 for a win or podium. For countback, add a Seconds column and sort with `PTS × 10000 + Wins × 100 + Seconds`.

The schedule lists rounds with dates and tracks, and visitors can filter it by track.

## Frequently asked questions

### How do I create racing standings?

Sign up for a free account, click "Create new", choose your columns (wins, losses, points, etc.), add your drivers, and type in the data. No spreadsheets or imports needed.

### Can I share my racing standings with others?

Yes. Every standings you create gets a unique shareable link. Anyone with the link can view the standings — no account required.

### Can I make a racing schedule too?

Yes. Check Schedule when creating and add games with dates, times, venues, and scores. Visitors can filter the schedule by team or venue, so each driver sees only their own games.

### Can I track racing stats?

Yes. Check Statistics when creating and you get a stats table with the columns already prefilled for racing — events entered, wins, and best results. Add computed columns for anything you work out with a formula, and sort by whichever column matters.

### Is Simple Standings free for racing leagues?

Free — standings, schedule, and statistics with no team limits, no game caps, and a public share link included. Public pages carry ads, which is what pays for it; a one-time $9.99 USD removes them from a league, with no subscription and no renewal.

### Do racing scores automatically update the standings?

Only if you want them to. Typing the table in yourself is the default, and it is what most leagues stick with — no syncing, no broken formulas. You can also enter one game at a time and let it do the arithmetic, report a score and have the standings update themselves, or keep a full box score for each game that updates the standings and every player's totals at once.
