The weight problem in seniors is complicated by the act that there are very few very light drivers nd those there are don't seem to complain that they are disadvantaged

The weights in Blue have operated to the same fomula for 10 years.

In year 1 the weight is n2 (eg: 52/142; 62/152 etc)
In year 2 the weight is n4 (eg: 54/144, 64/154 etc)
In year 3 the weight is n0 (eg: 50/140, 60/150 etc)
The reason is that some people report a slight advantage to one restrictor at some tracks, but he variation stops it being permanently signficant (ie: You cannot rely on a certain colou having the advantage year in, year out.)

It seems to work, it is common to get three different restrictors, so weight differnces in the drivers of 20kg or more on the podium and of widely different ages.
