GENERAL RULES
- You are always responsible for your participation on track even if youâve paused the game.
- Do not start the countdown to the race when sitting on the grid, the host will signal to do so in the Tier Chats after a select period of time. Failure to follow this protocol will result in being referred to the stewards.
- Missing races without informing your Coordinator could result in you being removed from the league.
- There is to be no profanity or advertising of another league in any shape or form; without permission, on the forum or in the league Tier chats.
- We abide by Discord, PSN, Sim Grid & WordPress Terms & Conditions and itâs our duty to report anyone breaking their or our Terms and Conditions.
- Participants will not be able to âRetire from sessionâ on track in qualifying or the race. This stops distraction for participants on hot laps and/or near them in the race. On F1 it can also cause a SC or VSC deployment manipulating the race result. If you have finished your running please wait in the garage for the session to end or head to the pits and retire the car from the pause menu
- A 5-minute delay will be permitted at the Coordinators discretion as long as the participant requests the extra 5 minutes to the coordinator privately, at the earliest opportunity prior to the scheduled start time.

- If a fellow player reports you for insulting or unacceptable behaviour directed towards them on social media, the forums or the Tier Chats the Stewards have the right to issue penalties. Everyone within our community should be treated equally and with respect. Failure to do so could result in you being removed from the league.
- In the event of a lobby restart where the race hasnât completed 5 laps, the Tier Coordinator will set the grid to the previous lobbiesâ Qualifying Results and the drivers inside the top 10 must start on the same tyre where the weather conditions are appropriate. The lobby will also be set to dynamic weather regardless of what the weather was in the previous lobby.
- Under SC/VSC conditions, a participant must not fall more than 5 seconds behind the SC otherwise they will be penalised by the stewards.
- During 'in' out 'out' laps in qualifying a driver must not deliberately cut the track and go outside the white lines unless they are doing so in a set of circumstances permitted by the stewards.
RACING RULES
- All overtakes must be completed within the white lines of the track.
- A cars width must be given when the majority of another car is alongside your car at the point of braking.
- You must defend your position within the white lines of the track & not keep your position by going fully outside the white lines and continuing on.
- If you do gain a position fully outside the white lines you must only do so to prevent a further incident.
- If you make contact or unfairly defend your position you must wait for the other participant to re-pass before attempting to overtake again.
- It is always the responsibility of the participant 'behind' attempting the overtake to ensure a clean and fair manoeuvre.
- A participant defending his position must not make several movements to block the participant attempting the overtake. They may make a directional change once and then again when drifting back towards the natural racing line providing they follow rule 2 of this section.
- If an incident is your fault, you should wait and allow the other participant to repass you before continuing to race. This must be done in a safe and orderly manner. The stewards will reduce or clear you of fault if this is completed.
- When defending your position on a straight you must not make any sudden movements.
- Participants defending can move back towards the racing line as long as they follow rule 2 of this section.
- If a participant tries a âhalf-heartedâ move and puts his car up the inside or outside of a corner, rule 2 will not apply because there will not be sufficient time for the defending participants to leave room.
- Divebombsâ are allowed but must be done in a controlled manner. Participants who divebomb and canât control their car will be penalised for reckless driving.
- More than 3 cars into a corner usually doesnât go. The Stewards will do their best to apportion blame but in most cases, a racing incident will usually be the result.
- You should not leave the front of you car on the inside or outside of a car through a corner, this will most likely result in a car making contact and spinning off.
- Tit for Tat driving will not be tolerated by participants.
- At a SC restart you must not overtake another car until crossing the start/finish line regardless of the in-game notifications.
