I have never lost any ranking yet. Including races which I finished last or almost last (except quitters). Once something happened IRL right after race start and I had to deal with it right away. I parked the car in a safe place off-track and went to deal with real life. When I came back, the races was still on, the car was where I left it, so I hopped in and did 2 or 3 remaining laps. Still got some ranking increase.
It may be like that for me because I have not done many races in SRS and have lowish rating (48 races, 568), but it's almost funny.

It seems to be purely who you beat and who beats you. And when you finish 15th you lose so many points you need to win 15 races to get back.
Hm... again my experience is a bit different. After bad performance (coming close to last or last) usually it takes me 2 or 3 decent races (not stellar, not even podiums necessarily) to get back where I was with my rating. Also the safety rating is pretty forgiving, I drive in open online races so there is contact almost in every race, sometimes many contacts, and I have no problem maintaining A and progressing towards S.
