Race finalization

Finalization means the race leaves Under review and reaches Results out: verification for outcomes that define standings is complete to the platform’s operative standard, and official standings are published.

Until that moment, provisional leaderboard and live standings remain subject to change. After Results out, the race record is stable for standings purposes in line with policy. Appeals for that race are not accepted after official standings are published.

The calendar gap between race window close and Results out is normal and varies by load, queue depth, and complexity—see Official standings.
