I can't tell you _what_ happened - or why it happened - but I can tell
you what the impact was.
Something affected the results for race 3. It's like the system got
confused about the results for just that one race. I could probably work
out which results were different...but I can't see an issue with the
table, and the results page is autogenerated from a scrape of the web.
This is where it gets *weird*. It doesn't just affect you, and it has
happened before to those affected just for race 3. No-one has noticed.
Appended, though, are your results since race 3...and you can see race 3
sometimes loses 2 points for no obvious reason. Everything else is
right.
This is going to irritate me until I can explain it...

Not a problem...other than finding a bug!
