About RaceHub

WHAT IS RACEHUB?

The WASZP class is growing rapidly around the world, and you can be sure that on any given day, somebody somewhere is having an awesome time WASZP sailing.

RaceHub brings all the amazing global WASZP activity together in one place. Any events and training opportunities are listed here so that WASZP sailors all over the world can easily track down their nearest activity and join the swarm.

RaceHub also houses the WASZP Global Rankings system, which pulls results from every WASZP event, allocates ranking points and seeds the sailors throughout the season.

RaceHub is managed by the WASZP International Class Association but can be used as a valuable tool by any National Class Association. It is easy to create an association and use the platform for any domestic WASZP activity, including the opportunity to take payments for entry fees, membership fees and other costs.

As the system develops, more useful features will be added to make the overall WASZP sailing experience as smooth and enjoyable as possible.

Ranking Points:

How do I gain ranking points?

Ranking points are awarded to every sailor that competes in a WASZP event listed on RaceHub.

What are the tiers?

Tier 1 - International WASZP Games

Tier 2 - Continental Championships – Euros / Asia Pacifics / Americas

Tier 3 - Major Domestic Events, including EuroCups and National Championships. National Class Associations can request to have an event classified as Tier 3 by emailing class@waszp.com

Tier 4 - Every other event

Rolling Rankings

From 2026, WASZP uses a rolling ranking system where sailors are ranked separately for each rig size. Only events from 2026 onwards are included in the rolling rankings.

Counting Events: A maximum of 6 events count towards a sailor's ranking, made up of:

- One Tier 1 Event
- One Tier 2 Event
- Two Tier 3 Events
- Two Tier 4 Events

Any of the events above may be substituted for an event of a lower Tier.

Event Expiry: Events expire and no longer count toward your ranking based on their tier:

- Tier 1: Replaced when the next Tier 1 event (International WASZP Games) is held
- Tier 2: Expires 18 months after the event
- Tier 3 & 4: Expires 12 months after the event

How are points calculated?

Points are calculated using the formula: 1 + (base - 1) x ((n - p) / (n - 1))

Where:
- base = maximum points available for 1st place (depends on tier)
- n = number of competitors in your rig size
- p = your finishing position

Base points by tier:
- Tier 1: 1400 points (fixed)
- Tier 2: 1000 points (fixed)
- Tier 3: 600 points (fixed)
- Tier 4: Calculated based on fleet size (max 600)

Tier 4 base points formula: log10(n - 2.5) x 250 + (n x 2.5)

Small fleet rule: Where a rig has fewer than 5 starters, points are calculated as if there were 5 boats and allocated starting from last place.

Adjusted rig multiplier: The 7.5, 6.9 and 5.8 rigs receive a 1.38x points multiplier on Tier 4 events. The 600-point cap still applies.
