I'm firmly in the 15 GP riders aren't in the qualifiers, the ones outside the top seven take their chances in the GP Challenge, which should be after the last GP. Get rid of the safety net.
Everyone moans in the GP you can qualify for the LCQ with 6 or 7 points and win the meeting. If 4 current GP riders qualify from the challenge you'll have someone on 6 or 7 in the GP next year.
I'd also say only GP positions of 8-14 of the permanent GP riders go to the Challenge, if your 15th. Tough,
