The formula for points is:

(100/number of entries+0.2)*(number of entries-pilots finish place)+1.2)

There is no value for number of "series members", so points are based on the total class entries, not just members. In your example, members would get credit for racing against all 10 racers.

That's an excellent incentive for series members to encourage as many people to race as possible.
