There's pit stops and drivers swaps every 10 km. It takes place once in the Human Mankind. The first happened in 2011. The pole sitter is simply the man who survives the 60 km straight. To be a straight it isn't that hard. But it runs under lakes and over mountains that makes it pretty bumpy and a handfull of drivers have flew into the air and landed on the moon. The worst accident ever was the Voyager that flew so far away even past Pluto in Practice Session 1.
how does "pit stops" work on a loooong straight track, seeing as there is no pitlane? do your pit crew set up every now and then down the road for you to stop at? or do the drivers have to get out, fill her up themselves etc, possibly at some convientiently placed petrol stations and such? haha
I can see pit stops being a problem. Maybe if you curved the track every ¼ mile or so, then curved it again and again until it joined, you could race it a few times to make the correct distance. Then you would only need 1 set of pits for the pit stops and the spectators could see the cars more than once. You could call it Oval Racing.
