I do not appear to have received any design points for the last two races,checked the chief designer and still had 16 race contract, even updated contract and still no designer points received.
Dave, design points are not tied to the Chief Designer, but to the Design facility, which always awards design points after each race. Your league races once per week, which means your last race was over two weeks ago now that you're in a new season. You don't earn design points for the last race because you have begun a new season where the design is all new.
