How do you advance? It is all explained right here.

  • The top 3 teams in each group advance.
  • The top 10 individuals in each group advance.
  • There will be 3 wildcard teams, these will be the three best total times for non-placing teams pertaining to their top five finishers. So in other words out of all the fourth, fifth, and sixth place teams, the three best total time performances for their scoring five will advance. Place is never overruled by time.
  • There will be 10 individual wildcards - The top 10 individuals from all the group races combined who have not qualified as of yet whether that be top 10 in their race, on a top 3 team, or a wild card team.
