Anyone know how they are scoring the Medal race?

The NOR is written in English but I will be damned if I can figure it out. They split the fleet... Usually you carry your points forward. but they talk about forwarding your position. ??? Usually you don't get a discard of your qualifying scores... but that does n't seem to be the case.. Then they have a medal race for sat in gold and silver fleets ... which usually means double points... for the top ten in a fleet... but ???? It looks like everyone races for normal points and they just call the final race a medal race.????

Thoughts?

So 4 US teams made the top ten in silver and should be racing Saturday.
