Proposal for a new ballast system:

Fixed amounts, based on championship standings.
Applied to 1st thru 4th places.

1st: 75kg
2nd: 45kg
3rd: 25kg
4th: 10kg

Basing on season standings makes it less volatile than race by race performances.

Using fixed weights eliminates any need for calculations and avoids the zero & 150kg limits.

Using weights below 100kg increases consistency of humans vs AI during the course of a race/long stint.

Anyway, props should go to Chitty - he took my basic concept and fleshed out details.

It was Chitty's idea.
I take that back then, it's the worst idea I have ever heard!
