What did you try to do?
compete in a league were every is the same level, so that everyone gains the same xp every gp. After all, it's been said many times that xp gained is 40+(40*n) with "n" difference between your level and the level of the highest player.

edit: formula= 40+(20*n)

What happened instead?
Instead xp gained was also either random or based on finishing position (I don't know which it is but I'm going to be really angry off if it's random)

Did the problem happen while using wi-fi, mobile data, or both?
Both

Did the bug happen in the app, on PC, or both?
Both

Which browser did you experience the problem in?

Can the bug be reproduced?
Yes. Create a league right now and put about 10 new teams in there, watch the results if you have time to waste.

Please explain how this is even possible.

I'll escalate it for further inspection, also I'm sorry for the inconvenience but it's weekend and thus a lot of people spend their time with family. The bane of (small) game developers I suppose, the time your users have the most time to play is the time most of your support staff is away as well.

Though in AOR league not everyone is exactly the same level, at least one entered one race late (Elite) and also the Rookie tier was supposed to be filled up with reserve players. Also, at least in Rookie and Pro, some higher level manager joined and I'm not sure if they all were removed/disqualified before a race took place, same for the host account that was replaced by a low level dummy account at some time. Myself I can't take a look as I don't have special rights in the game and also no password to the league (anymore) to even check manager stats as a player.

Edit: Didn't notice it myself, but also the formula is 40+(20*n)

"Though in AOR league not everyone is exactly the same level", that is true but because the formula is 40+(20*n), acheiving xp gains such as 33 or 42 or anything not divisible by 20 shouldn't be possible. And yet a lot of the managers have strange xp values that clearly aren't multiples of 20. I guess it's either we are gaining strange amounts of so or the xp caps aren't multiples of 20, which should then be fixed.

The players that joined late wouldn't affect the elites, since the elites participated since the first race and should therefore have the highest xp out of anyone, and yet the pros who joined later or at the same time have higher xp.

Finally, if the pros have better xp because of a higher levelled manager, this wouldn't explain why other managers who have been in the same tier as me since the beginning of the season  could have 2 less xp than me and another have 15 more xp than me.

Discussed things a bit with another moderator and there's something I didn't really paid attention to when doing new teams: They start with a little amount of random XP. For example my AOR team must have started with 7 XP. I don't know the range of it though. Also if the second race yielded 40 XP and there's at least one manager starting with 15, or more, XP then he would have leveled and all the ones with less would get 20 extra XP the following race. So if you've been such a manager and the other one had 5 less then that would result in the 15 ahead, or, of course, he started with them but it sounds a bit much as long as you didn't start with only up to 4.

So is there a solution to this? What are the devs going to do about this apparent random xp the players start with?

I've set everyone in the AOR league to exactly 360xp for now. Thanks for reporting the problem, we're very busy in the dev team which is why I wasn't able to look at this until now.
