Basic Rules
Here’s the basic rundown of the Fantasy Racing rules: Each race players select 1 A-Rider, 2 B-Riders and 1 Team. For those oblivious to how Fantasy games work, riders earn the player points based off their performance in the actual race. In the MotoGP and World Superbike games, the point system reflects the current FIM points structure, with 25 points for a win on down to 1 point for 15th. To keep things interesting, a five-point bonus will be awarded to the rider posting the fastest lap of the race.

Players can only chose individual riders a limited amount of times for the season, the limit set up in the series' rules (5 in Mot oGP and 6 in World Superbike). Getting a good result from the A-Rider will be critical in fantasy racing success, but finding consistent performers from the B-Rider crew will seperate the fantasy studs from the geldings.
