5SPX
5 Star Racing * PXN Championship
Code of Conduct and Penalty Rules
1. Preface
All drivers are responsible for showing respect both on and off the track. Through the 5SPX season, we provide you with a platform where you can participate in daily competitive races. However, the enjoyment of the race should be the top priority for each of us. That's why we provide you with this set of rules so that our social values and principles can also be practiced on the track. As a racing community, 5SR supports inclusivity and diversity and hopes to provide everyone with the best racing experience.
---
2. General Rules
Each driver registered to participate in the 5SPX season races commits to abide by the following rules. Violations of these rules will result in penalties and may lead to exclusion from our services depending on the severity of the violation.
2.1. Driver and Team Names and Avatars
All drivers must use normal names in the game. The names should include first names and last names. Numbers, punctuation marks, or special characters are not allowed. Offensive, racist, or insulting words in names, as well as offensive, racist, war - glorifying, or insulting symbols and materials in avatars, are strictly prohibited!
Typical online or spoof nicknames and names referring to public figures are also prohibited.
The 5SPX race committee has the right to decide whether to allow a driver's name.
Similar to real - world motorsports, driver and team names must not contain additional content for advertising purposes. Team names must not consist solely of web addresses.
By participating in the 5SPX season, you are deemed to have accepted the above code of conduct. We reserve the right to use these names permanently on live broadcasts, websites, or other platforms.
2.2. Multiple Accounts
The use of multiple accounts is not allowed throughout the 5SPX league. So - called "alt accounts" are not permitted! This also includes sharing accounts with other users. If this rule is violated, we reserve the right to completely and permanently exclude the relevant accounts (including the main account) from the race services.
2.3. Hardware, Software, and Network Connection
Each driver needs to have sufficient hardware, software, and network connection to ensure safe driving. If we detect problems (e.g., high ping, inappropriate input devices, incorrect software configuration), we reserve the right to exclude these drivers from the 5SPX season until the problems are resolved.
2.4. Input Devices
All input devices are allowed as long as they can ensure safe driving, including keyboards, mice, gamepads, steering wheels, and pedal devices.
2.5. Racing Liveries
Currently, the LMU game does not support custom liveries, and all liveries provided in the game are allowed.
If the game supports custom liveries, displaying offensive, racist, or political content will result in a permanent ban.
2.6. Driving Aids
- Brake Assist: Not allowed
- Ideal Line: Allowed
- Automatic Shifting: Allowed
- Stability Control: Allowed
- Steering Assist: Not allowed
- Automatic Clutch: Allowed
2.7. Race Preparation
Each driver must be fully prepared for the race to avoid unnecessarily putting other participants in dangerous situations.
2.8. Cheating
Any form of cheating is strictly prohibited! In addition, the use of any software glitches to gain an advantage over other drivers is not allowed.
2.9. Telemetry Data (MoTeC)
We reserve the right to request telemetry data (MoTeC) in individual cases or on a random basis. If the telemetry data cannot be provided for subsequent races after a clear request, it may result in a permanent ban and the deletion of all race points.
2.10. Technical Issues
Each driver is responsible for checking in a timely manner whether they can participate in the race. If there are technical problems (e.g., hardware failure, Windows or Steam updates, network failure) or other obligations, you must cancel your race registration on your own in a timely manner to avoid losses and point deductions.
If a race session fails to start normally due to technical problems on the LMU official server or on the 5SPX side, you must wait at least 10 minutes for a possible delayed start. If this causes an unintentional overlap with subsequent races, you must withdraw from these races on your own.
2.11. Unsportsmanlike Conduct
Even matters not explicitly mentioned in the code of conduct may be considered unsportsmanlike conduct and subject to corresponding penalties.
2.12. Undefined Events
If a problem not defined in the rules occurs during the season, the 5SPX Competition Committee will make a decision.
2.13. Third - Party Advertising
Without explicit written permission, actively promoting other platforms, leagues, events, or companies is not allowed. The exception to this rule is advertising elements on racing liveries and official team names.
2.14. Rule Changes
We reserve the right to change or expand the rules when necessary. This may also be done during the season. Changes will be announced on our race homepage, Discord, and community WeChat group.

3. Track Behavior
First of all, through the 5SPX race season, we hope to provide everyone with an interesting racing experience. We require each driver to show respect on the track. Our community is diverse, which can also be seen from the different driver strengths. All rules must be respected by each driver.
3.1. Qualifying Behavior
(In the 2025S1 season, individual qualifying will be used, i.e., drivers will qualify individually without affecting others. In subsequent seasons, open qualifying may be considered depending on the competitiveness of the races.)
a) Each driver on the in - lap or out - lap must give up the racing line for drivers doing flying laps. Please be aware of your actions and keep an eye on drivers doing flying laps.
b) Each driver is responsible for leaving enough space for the vehicle in front to avoid catching up with it during your flying lap!
c) Drivers doing flying laps do not have to give up space for faster drivers.
d) Faster drivers must not interfere with the flying laps of slower drivers who are also doing valid flying laps. In multi - class races, faster classes can overtake slower classes.
e) The pit lane speed limit must not be exceeded at any time.
f) At the start of qualifying, drivers must queue at the pit lane entrance and wait. They can only leave the pit lane after seeing the green light; otherwise, they will receive an in - game DT penalty.
3.2. Race Behavior
a) During the formation lap, especially before the start of the race, the specified starting procedure (e.g., specified position/speed) must be followed. The maximum speed in LMU is 60 km/h. Intentional lagging behind ("last - to - first challenge"), unpredictable deceleration, or lane changes are strictly prohibited! Automatic penalties will also be applied in the game.
Please make sure to participate in more daily races before joining community races to familiarize yourself with the game mechanics!
b) The overtaking driver is responsible for making a clean overtake. However, both drivers must remain vigilant during the overtaking process.
c) Dangerous or reckless "divebomb" overtakes (either for position or for lapped drivers) on other drivers are prohibited!
d) When competing for positions, drivers must leave enough space for each other. Forcing another vehicle off the track or intentional collisions are not allowed.
e) Any driver defending a position on a straight can use the full width of the track when changing lanes as they approach the braking zone, provided that no "major part" of the overtaking vehicle is beside them. In this case, the driver defending the position must not deviate from their line without good reason. To avoid any doubt, "major part" means that the front of the overtaking vehicle is beside the rear wheels of the other vehicle.
f) When competing for positions, the leading driver can change the racing line once for defense. The lane change for defense must be made in a timely manner. Reacting to the previous lane change of the attacker ("blocking") is not allowed. Multiple lane changes to break the slipstream ("weaving") and lane changes in the braking zone ("diagonal braking") are prohibited.
g) "Breaktest" (sudden and unnecessary heavy braking), "cut - off" (changing lanes despite still having an overlap with the other vehicle), or "ram - and - overtake" (hitting the rear of the opponent to prevent them from turning) are prohibited.
h) In the pit lane, drivers must stay in the "fast lane" (the lane next to the pit wall) for as long as possible. If non - compliance causes interference, we will issue warnings/penalties depending on the situation. Vehicles in the fast lane have priority.
i) Drivers exiting the pit lane must not cross the continuous line. In addition, the track limits in the pit lane exit area must be observed; exceeding the track limits in the pit lane exit area will result in a penalty.
j) Drivers must ensure that they do not interfere with other drivers when leaving the pit lane. On some tracks, if necessary, they must leave the ideal line so that other drivers can return to the track unobstructed.
k) Driving in the wrong direction is prohibited.
l) Headlight flashing can be used to alert lapped vehicles. When competing for positions, flashing signals can be used to indicate to other drivers that you are faster. Excessive use of flashing signals is not allowed and may result in a warning or penalty.
m) In multi - class races, drivers of faster vehicles (or classes) are responsible for overtaking slower vehicles (or classes) in a safe place. It must be taken into account that each driver is driving at the limit of their vehicle and is also competing for positions with other drivers in the same class. Reckless "divebomb" at the end of the braking zone or at the entrance of a corner is not allowed, and if an accident occurs, corresponding penalties may be imposed!
Drivers of slower vehicles have the right to choose the line, so faster vehicles (or classes) must find a safe way to overtake. If a driver from a faster class is directly behind, the driver of the slower vehicle (or class) should always stay on the racing line and not make unpredictable lane changes. Accidents caused by unpredictable behavior may result in penalties.
n) Each driver must respect the blue flag. You must not defend under the blue flag and should maintain your line. Please use the appropriate part of the track to overtake the driver shown the blue flag (e.g., a straight is appropriate, while a complex corner section is not).
Continuous disregard of the blue flag may result in a penalty.
o) The yellow flag must be respected, and drivers must drive cautiously under the yellow flag.
---
4. Off - Track Behavior
The 5SR Sim Racing Community hopes that everyone respects our social standards and values. Everyone must make their own contribution to this! Therefore, the following instructions must be followed. Violations or disregard of these instructions - whether in the game chat, WeChat group chat, or Discord - will result in penalties depending on the severity of the violation and may lead to exclusion from our entire community platform.
a) Any form of insult is prohibited.
b) Discriminatory or racist remarks are prohibited and will always result in a lifetime ban.
c) Spreading political or theological content is prohibited, and if it involves radical remarks, a lifetime ban will be imposed.
d) Discriminatory behavior is prohibited and will be penalized.
e) Using in - game chat during free practice is allowed. During races and qualifying, using in - game chat is prohibited. You can discuss the race through our event WeChat group and Discord. After the race, you can send short phrases like "Good race" in the game chat.
---
5. Reporting and Penalties

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
## 3. 赛道行为
首先，通过5SPX比赛赛季，我们希望为每个人提供有趣的赛车体验。我们要求每位车手在赛道上表现出尊重。我们的社区是多样化的，这也可以从不同的车手实力中看出。所有规则都必须得到每位车手的尊重。
**3.1. 排位赛行为**
（2025S1赛季将使用单独排位赛，即车手单独进行排位，与其他人互不影响。后续赛季将会视比赛竞争方面考虑，使用开放排位赛）
a) 每位在进站圈或出站圈的车手必须为正在做飞驰圈的车手让出赛车线。请注意您的行为，并留意正在做飞驰圈的车手。
b) 每位车手有责任为前方的车辆留出足够的空间，以免在您的飞驰圈中追上他！
c) 正在做飞驰圈的车手不必为更快的车手让出空间。
d) 更快的车手如果遇到较慢的车手，且该车手也在做有效的飞驰圈，则不得干扰该车手的飞驰圈。在多级别比赛中，更快的级别可以超越较慢的级别。
e) 任何时候都不得超过维修区的速度限制。
f) 排位赛开始时必须排队在维修区入口处等待，看到信号灯为绿灯后方可驶出维修区，否则将会收到游戏内DT处罚。
**3.2. 比赛行为**
a) 在编队圈期间，尤其是在比赛开始前，必须保持指定的起步程序（例如，指定的位置/速度）。LMU最高速度为60公里/小时。故意落后（“最后到第一挑战”）、不可预测的减速或变线是严格禁止的！游戏内也会进行自动处罚
请务必在参加社区比赛前多进行日常比赛，熟悉游戏机制！
b) 超车的车手有责任进行干净的超越。然而，双方车手在超车过程中都必须保持警惕。
c) 禁止对其他车手进行危险或鲁莽的“Divebomb”超车（无论是为了位置还是被套圈的车手）！
d) 在争夺位置时，车手必须为彼此留出足够的空间。迫使另一辆车离开赛道或故意撞击是不允许的。
e) 任何在直道上防守位置的车手，在接近刹车区时，可以在变线时使用全赛道宽度，前提是没有“大部分”试图超车的车辆在ta旁边。在这种情况下，车手在防守位置时不得无故偏离自己的线路。为了避免任何疑问，“大部分”意味着超车车辆的前部位于另一辆车后轮旁边。
f) 在争夺位置时，前方的车手可以改变一次赛车线以进行防守。防守位置的变线必须及时进行。不允许对攻击者之前的变线做出反应（“阻挡”）。多次变线以打破尾流（“蛇形画龙行驶”）和在刹车区变线（“斜向刹车”）是被禁止的。
g) “Breaktest刹车测试”（突然和不必要的重刹车）、“切车”（尽管车辆之间仍有重叠，但仍变线）或“撞击并超越”（撞击对手的后部使其无法转弯）是被禁止的。
h) 在维修区，车手必须尽可能长时间地保持在“快车道”（紧邻维修墙的车道）。如果不遵守导致干扰，我们将根据情况发出警告/处罚。快车道上的车辆有优先权。
i) 从维修区出口驶出的车手不得越过连续线。此外，必须遵守维修区出口区域的赛道限制；在维修区出口区域超出赛道限制将被处罚。
j) 必须确保在离开维修区时不干扰其他车手。在某些赛道上，如果情况需要，必须离开理想线路，以便其他车手可以不受阻碍地返回赛道。
k) 禁止逆向行驶。
l) 可以使用头灯闪烁来提醒被套圈的车辆。在争夺位置时，允许使用闪烁信号向其他车手表明您更快。过度使用闪烁信号是不允许的，可能会受到警告或处罚。
m) 在多级别比赛中，更快车辆（或级别）的车手有责任在安全的地方超越较慢的车辆（或级别）。必须考虑到每位车手都在其车辆的极限内驾驶，并且也在与同级别的其他车手争夺位置。在刹车区末端或弯道入口处的鲁莽“Divebomb”是不允许的，如果发生事故，可能会受到相应处罚！
较慢车辆的车手有权选择线路，因此更快车辆（或级别）必须找到安全超车的方式。如果更快级别的车手已经直接跟在后面，较慢车辆（或级别）的车手应始终保持在赛车线上，不要做出不可预测的变线。由于不可预测行为导致的事故可能会受到处罚。
n) 每位车手必须尊重蓝旗。您不得在蓝旗下防守，并应保持您的线路。请使用赛道上合适的部分来超越被蓝旗的车手（例如：直道是合适的，而组合弯道部分则不合适）。
如果连续无视蓝旗，可能会受到处罚。
o) 必须尊重黄旗，并在黄旗下谨慎驾驶。
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**4. 比赛外的行为**
5SR模拟赛车社区希望每个人都尊重我们的社会标准和价值观。每个人都必须为此做出自己的贡献！因此，必须遵守以下指示。违反或无视这些指示——无论是在游戏聊天、微信群聊天还是Discord中——将根据违规的严重程度受到处罚，并可能导致被排除在我们的整个社区平台之外。
a) 任何形式的侮辱都是禁止的。
b) 歧视性或种族主义言论是禁止的，并将始终受到终身封禁的处罚。
c) 传播政治或神学内容是禁止的，如果涉及激进言论，将受到终身封禁的处罚。
d) 歧视行为是禁止的，并将受到处罚。
e) 在自由练习期间使用游戏内聊天是允许的。在比赛和排位赛期间，禁止使用游戏内聊天。您可以通过我们的赛事微信群、Discord来讨论比赛。比赛结束后，您可以在游戏聊天发送简短的短语，如“比赛不错”等。
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
