Hello Boinc Family,

The Formula Boinc is modeled on Formula One World Championship, circuits are projects, times are team's points made on each project from 1 January to 30 November. Set your crunch to have the best production on many projects and you get points for the podium of best Boinc's contributors.

New rules for 2014: The teams will be sorted in leagues according to their RAC. See list here.

Link to the Formula-Boing website: http://formula-boinc.org/

Link detailing the leagues: http://formula-boinc.org/equipes.py?year=2014

Participation is automatic if your team runs more than 10 projects

Thank you for spreading the word within your team

Kind Regards

Ousermaatre on behalf of Steering committee FB.
