a) the competitor with the highest individual points across all rounds.
b) if still tied, the competitor with the highest individual points in a single round.
c) if still tied, the competitor with the highest Driver Rating (DR).
d) if still tied, the competitor with the highest Sportsmanship Rating (SR).
e) if still tied, the competitor who started playing Gran Turismo 7 earlier, per their PlayStation™Network account.
