Just wanted to say that I thought the system for making novice move up to expert is excellent.

I do however have a couple questions.

I noticed that some of the novices that are being forced to move up have never finished in the top three. They just consistently finished every race.
Some of them are first year novices and could use another year of experience before going on to expert.
I was wondering if riders that have less than two years of experience and have a score under .700 can ask to remain a novice for another year?
