We changed the Group A and B designation for the 2020-2021 competition. Due to the pandemic, we thought that all teams would choose the virtual option (originally there was only Group A), but several teams wanted to continue with their physical rigs, so we added a Group B. We will continue to use this naming convention in the future.
