there are pro's and con's to this format, let's see how it works out. It is more like real world, but on the other hand number of racers in semi's and main final is limited of course. Makes qualifying more important

OK from a bump up test event earlier, it looks like the semis will be seeded in an even distribution. 1-2 qualifiers directly to main, semis filled this way:
a: 3-7-11-...
b: 4-8-12-...
c: 5-9-13-...
d: 6-10-14-...
Pieter comment:"
oops...
From 5th position the participants will be distributed to 3 semi finals:
5-7-9-11-13-15-17-19-21-23
6-8-10-12-14-16-18-20-22-24
that must ofcourse be: 2 semi finals..."

that's correct, semi's are spread out evenly

In the Bump Up format only top 42 advance to Semi Finals (2 directly to Main final), others drop out after qualy.
Same after Semi finals, only 2 top qualifyers and numbers 1 and 2 from each of the 4 semi's will race the main final, very much like in real racing formats. Let's see how this works out.
Will drivers be equaly sorted in semis? Or will it give a chance for 2 drivers from 2÷12, 2 drivers from 13÷22, 2 drivers from 23÷32 etc?
I think that is a very important question. If it is sorted by time, then only 2 from the top 10 will have a chance in the A group, 2 from the B group who are most likely slower than everybody from the A group will get in, and so on, ending with 2 from the D group that are laps down getting into the final. I hope it is not this way.
Its not very bad thing if its this way. It will mean that only 4 top drivers will be in A main but it will bring some live to other mains. But it would be better if itvwas real bump up system , in wich people advance from D>C , from C>B etc.
