If you have the highest rep in the league or very close to the highest, you really don't gain much rep, and can actually lose rep even for a 1-2 finish
Yes I have the highest reputation in my league. But it's a very active and competitive league, we are many attending the races and there are a lot of 8+k reputation managers. I'm the only one at 9k though, but it always gave me some rep points when I got good results, now 0 points for two victories in a row, that's never happened before...
