And that his manager on purpose went for that season ending

I love how Achterberg exploited that end of season cluster of FR races for 40-50 ranked teams

checked, ok for me, good work

I see 2 favorits, and it is nice the others want to accompany them.

I wish I could have disagreed with Frank here, but the lower divisions had no one that was really better: Lodewijk Kuipers got one of his wins from division 11 and had few points specifically in FR, Skyler Kok only got 1 win and only 160 points, Lorenz Verlie got even fewer points, same for Joakim Ask and Yao Zhijing, and Gylfi Jansson is more of a sprinter.

Thanks to Alexander from Team Chili, nominating in specialist categories gets a little bit easier. If you want an overview of the top-20 riders of this category based on points scored in races inside category in Division 1 t/m 3, do the following:

- Go to the OCM Chat
- look if 'chilibot' is online (it usually is)
- type in '/query chilibot'
- In the individual conversation screen with chilibot, type in 'q awardType 63 FR' (the number stands for the season, so it might be wrong if I forgot to edit it)
- You will now get a response from chilibot, giving you a link to the top-20, with points scored attached.

Beware however, this list does not take into account results in Div4 or lower, and might not include some of the newer races, so always check if a rider has scored in any of those divisions/races before posting his points inside category. Also, make sure you don't miss that great rider who has won 10 races, but never made it to the higher divisions.

Example:

Name: Royce Doe
Team: Invisible Riders
OCM Tour Rank: 120th
OCM Tour Points: 550
Points inside category: 440 (80%)
2 wins inside category (1 Div3, 1 Div4)
5 other results inside category (1 Div2, 1 Div3, 3 Div4)

Please do it exactly like this, just don't nominate Royce Doe
