Ian
What is the basis of the FAI ranking list. I got a question about it and was not sure if it was something that the FAI originated or if it was some work that was done in the UK?

The rules were proposed to the CIAM Plenary meeting in 2013 and passed. They are now in the 2014 Sporting Code volume F1 as Annex 4 (although I now notice that in the list of contents the old Technical Secretary incorrectly listed it as “World Cup Ranking”)
