The Free Practice session will be 10 minutes in length. Every participating driver should join as soon as possible after the server opens to make sure that they don't miss the start of Qualifying and also to make sure that their game is configured & working properly.

Qualifying will be split to two sessions (10 + 5 minutes). Both sessions will run in non-private mode (all cars will be visible on track at the same time). Qualifying 1 will be run with free setup while Qualifying 2 has Parc Ferme enforced. Parc Ferme will only allow you to change your fuel load, tire compound, engine boost, engine brakemap, front wing angle, steering lock, brake balance and brake pressure after the session is over, so make sure you have your race setup loaded when entering Qualifying 2. Qualifying 2 session will be closed, this means that it will impossible for people to join while the session is running.

The Warmup session will be 10 minutes in length. You can drive freely in the Warmup session to try to get a feel for the heavier car after qualifying on low fuel.

The Race will be 53 laps long. Drive safely during the race, especially at the start and the first lap in general.

Red Flags will NOT be used unless in very specific situations which are specified in the rule documents.
 
The penalty box is the box above that. The box labelled License Status is the License Status box, it just shows what penalty points have been accumulated over the season for each driver - See the rule book points 2.11 - 2.17:)

Apologies about petar, Martial suffers brake failure ( and front the next lap) at the same time where petar brake earlier in the chicane. He tried to avoid him, turning right, unsuccessfully... :unsure:
You deserved the race. I cannot say anything else.

Ps : Petar lost brakes 2 corners before the contact also... :/
 
Lost force feedback in qualy and had to restart the game and couldnt set a decent time.

Made some bad decisions with the race setup and was too slow on the straights and couldnt pass (and was passed easily). Broke the car in the champions wall and whole lap without wing and after that was 1,5 sek a lap slower than in practise and just cruised to the end.

Oh almost forgot.

Well im quite satisfied with my first race weekend as was never expecting much and was some quite encouraging race pace. See you all in Silverstone?? I think? Anyway whether it is I'll be hoping to improve on 22nd place in qualifying. XD
 
I agree with Eduard, Mihajlo was a pain to overtake since he lagged so much, thank god I got past him :D
 
Well, i had some problems with driver Juhani Alman, i know is good on the league, but due to him he creates train traffic, then suddenly braked more, on the last s corner run very aggressive and he damaged me, suffering this i lost my car control many times before the main straight on the finish line. Then later we had a lot of fights with Sebastiano Filosa, but on the S corner, blocked me and did a dangerous pass, after i was faster and passed him clean, and ofcourse spin me and get back on the track.
for my last back luck, i have not as big as i thought brake ducts, loosing corners and then crashing on the wall.
ps: Brljak was the totally unlucky man, cause due to brakes, lost his victory, but even with 3 wheels, managed to stay on the podium and 3rd position!!! :p
