It comes down to this.
First of all to recieve a finish you must get a checkered flag and complete more than half of the laps that the winner has made.
There are two types DNF and DNS.
A DNF(did not finish) is scored 20points PLUS total number of riders in the class.
A DNS (did not start) is scored 30 points PLUS the number of riders in the class.
That is why many times a rider will be seen sitting at a finish line waiting to get a checkered flag.
to answer your question...... DNF is a DNF no matter how it is obtained.
so both of the guys your talking about would recieve the same score for that moto. this means that the second moto (or 1st) depending on the case would decide the finish.
Also remember this is the way we do it in the Amatuer ranks what they do in the pros is totally greek to me.
I was also just reminded that I had to ask my wife how this was done since I don't do scoring..............she does LOL>
this is for mx, Harescrambles and other types of racing I bet will be different.
