From the next Test Season 21 beginning on Sunday 01 April, the 'Top 24 Superstars' will be grouped together according to their Driver Rating (DR) and also by the number of points acquired at the end of the races. Please see below for the details of each:

・Matching by Driver Rating
At the time of entry, the top 24 players will be matched according to their Driver Rating.

・Matching by acquired points
At the time of entry, the top 24 players will be matched according to their Acquired Points in the World Rankings.

In addition to these 2 matching parameters, there will also be a maximum number of entry slots for the same country/region and manufacturer in the "Top 24 Superstars".

For example:
・If the maximum number of country/region slots for the 'Nations Cup' is 10, only up to 10 players from the same country/region will be matched together in a single 'Top 24 Superstars' race;
・ If the maximum number of slots for a manufacturer is 2 for the 'Manufacturer Series', only up to 2 players from the same manufacturer will be matched together in a single 'Top 24 Superstars' race.
