Driving rules and code of behaviour

• For LMP2 don't dive bomb the GT3s into the corners. In the end, both of you lose less time when you overtake them on the exists
• Respect the other cars/class on track

Qualification

• It’s not allowed to press ESC on track. It's only allowed to do in the pit lane. If you press ESC on track you are not allowed to leave the pits again.

General Information

• If you want to serve a time penalty during a pit stop the penalty needs to be selected in the pit window (see image below).

​

Formationlap

• You have to drive with caution on the formation lap. Excessive weaving and braking is not allowed.
• On straights there needs to be a constant speed of about 120 with a maximum speed of 130 from the starting group leaders. No excessive braking or accelerating is allowed.
• Excessive gaps (max 5 vehicle length) in the field during the formation lap may be subject to a penalty.
• If you spin on the formation lap you are allowed to catch up to the end of the current class grid.
• As soon as double file is called from race control the leader is only allowed to drive maximum 120 and the rest of the field can close the formation. From then on also maximum 120 will apply (Everybody with a speed above 120 at race start will be considered to have a jump start).

Race start
The formation lap will be in single file and there should be a gap between the last LMP2 and the first GT3 of ~5 seconds so we will have two starting groups. Between turn 13 and turn 14 there will be a command to go to the formation speed of 80. This means just go off throttle and let the car roll and don't brake. Once the leading car has reached 80 the rest of the group goes into double file and closes the formation. Once the starting group is in formation a maximum speed of 80 applies to all cars of this starting group. When entering the main straight race control will order the cars of the respective starting group into double file and the cars in the rear should close the formation. Then there will be a command to get ready (whisper in TeamSpeak) followed by the Green Green Green command (in game chat). Both starting groups will have a separate starting procedure.

Pit entry

• Cars in pitlanes are collidable and no ghost cars. So be careful in the pitlane!
