This has been discussed and fully explained on another post but, to summarise, it's not an average of your group positions, it's all of your times added up and compared against all other players' times ... do well on a longer track (e.g. Le Mans) and you can do badly on a shorter track (e.g. Monza) and still end up higher than your average.

Additionally, there is the group A consistency, each (WT)TT group A is the top 1% but (for reasons best known to FM) the overall WTTTT group A is the top 0.1% so a lot of players (including me) who are in group A in every event are still way off group A and stuck in group B.

Hope that helps.
