Final Results

Due to a mistake made by me (Raúl De Castro) when weighting the Rock Crawling event, it has been necessary to make an amendment in the final position table. This change affects the previously announced overall 2nd and 3rd place.

Since the amendment was only in the rock crawling event score, there are no additional adjustments in other event scores.

I sincerely apologize for any inconvenient caused by this mistake.

Cost Reports

Every year, most teams have a hard time delivering cost reports at the right time and in the right form. In spite of it, some of those teams succeed.

This year, we received some reports and we must insist in general considerations for all you to have in mind for the next time:

1. Read CAREFULLY the first sheet "INSTRUCTIONS" from the costreportrev-b.xls file that you can find in http://students.sae.org/competitions/bajasae/rules/. According to the valid rules for this competition, that excel file contains required formats for cost reports.
2. Do as recommended in Hint 1 one more time. (We MUST insist). Usually those files contain additional indications for your report format and delivery that are not specified in the mbrules.

Greetings for all the teams that delivered cost reports. We hope you can find the detailed feedback useful.
