PIT RULES

There will be 1x mandatory pitstop during the race and will require tyre change. The pit window will open 25 minutes into the race, remain open for 10 minutes, and then close with 25 minutes left of the race. All drivers must make their pit stop within this pit window to meet the race session’s pit requirement. Failure to do so will result in an automatic penalty applied by the game.

All drivers are allowed to make multiple pitstops during the race outside the pit window (i.e. to repair damage).

GENERAL RULES

DO:

1. Have fun!
2. Race clean
3. Race hard
4. Race fair
5. Report incidents when required

DO NOT:

1. Insult/abuse fellow races. Abuse will not be tolerated
2. Retaliate if involved in an incident that was not your fault
3. Re-join the track in a dangerous manner

QUALIFYING

Qualifying sessions can be very busy on track. It is your own responsibility to find a gap on track where other drivers on their own hot laps will not interfere with yours. Do not overtake another car if they are also on a hot lap – even if you’re faster. If the driver in front invalidates their lap, you may pass.

On your out lap(s) you should be aware of other drivers on their hot lap approaching from behind and stay off the racing line.

If you require to return back to the pits, please stop off-track and return to garage or drive back manually.

RACE

FORMATION LAP

On the formation lap, maintain single file until the game tells you to go double file. We recommend all drivers to stay within the green box that appears on the HUD. Do not drive through (ghost) other cars during the formation lap as this can lead to crashes.

FIRST LAP

Extra caution should be applied during the first lap of the race. Remember to brake earlier than usual into T1 if other cars are in front and give each other space.

DEFENDING/OVERTAKING/RACING SIDE BY SIDE

1. Only one defensive move per corner is allowed.
2. If an opponent is alongside, you must leave racing room. Do not force them off the track.
3. Moving across the track in a defensive move under braking is not allowed
4. Swerving across the track to make an overtake impossible is not allowed
5. Do not react or retaliate any incidents where you were the victim during the race. Please remain calm and discuss it with the driver who was responsible or refer to the stewards for review. We expect you to discuss an incident with the other driver in a decent manner. Any malicious behaviour, verbal or otherwise, will be dealt with. Incidents can be reported to the stewards for review.

BLUE FLAGS

Drivers being lapped by lead cars can stay on their line but must facilitate a clean pass (i.e. by lifting). A blue-flagged driver should not defend their track position. Intentionally holding up or defending against a lapping car may result in a penalty or even disqualification if referred to the stewards. Drivers about to be lapped should behave in a predictable way without sudden changes of direction. Drivers should follow these rules when a passing car is within 1 second behind.

Lapped drivers are allowed to un-lap themselves as long as they can pull away after passing. It is at the discretion of the car in front to facilitate the move. The car with lap advantage is not required to allow the lapped car back in front and the car behind has no right to attack the car in front unless the move is facilitated or suggested by the car ahead by using indicators, lifting the accelerator or keeping to one side of the track. Depending on the race format, each driver should be able to gauge the necessity of the un lapping manoeuvre.

INCIDENT REPORTING

Incidents can be submitted for review by a dedicated team of Stewards.

REPORTING PERIOD

Incidents can be reported up to 48 hours after the race. Incidents reported after this will not be reviewed. This is to give stewards sufficient time to review incidents and apply penalties (and enable league admins to update league tables accordingly) in a prompt timescale ahead of the next round.

VIDEO REQUIREMENTS

1. A video created specifically for the report must be uploaded to a video platform (e.g. YouTube) and linked in the report form (link to form below)
2. The HUD (e.g. driver standings, throttle/brake pedal inputs) must be displayed at all times
3. The video must show the incident from both perspectives. First from the point of view of the driver who submits the report, then from the perspective of the driver whose behaviour is being reported
4. It is mandatory to select the chaser or helicopter camera.
5. The video should not exceed a total length of three minutes.
6. Please leave the replay speed at x1 (original speed). If there are longer situations to be assessed (e.g. Ignoring Blue Flags), the replay speed can be increased.
