Sign-up:
Sign-up will start at the relevant topic from today until the 10th of November and the championship only will take place if we have at least 16 drivers.

There will be two championships, one for Teams and another for drivers, the sign up will done by the team principal for the all Championship.
Teams can have one or two drivers, any Team can replace any driver for another one during the Championship for any reason, however during the championship the Team can only use 4 drivers at the maximum.

When the sign-up is made, the all team is agreeing with the championship rules, after that no complaining about them will be accepted.

Skins:
Each selected Team has to reply at the Skins topic with the download link of his skin or select a skin already available for these cars from the real F1 teams, in this case both Team drivers have to pick the same one.

Rules:

Punt, barge and rejoin rule;
If for any reason punt another driving forcing him to go off the track or lost positions and if you want to avoid any penalty after the race, you should serve immediately a drive through without pit stop for repair.
Particular attention must be given to rejoin the track to avoid contact with other drivers.


Passing;
The responsibility for the decision to pass another car, and to do it safely, rests with the overtaking driver.
Once the overtaking driver has his car on side of the other vehicle, the leading driver must leave enough room on the track.

Blocking;
Blocking is a suddenly changing of the racing line in an attempt to cut off and prevent an obviously faster car from making a pass and is not permitted.

Laps down;
If a driver is one or more laps down during the race or is on his installation lap during qualification, he needs to give room to the other drivers that are faster than him.

Corner-cutting;
Corner-cutting is not allowed. Drivers must have at least two wheels in white lines of the track at any time during the lap, unless no advantage was taken from that action. Penalties may be given for an off-course excursion that affords an advantage.

Chat;
Chat is not allowed in any shape or form during qualifying or during the race, this also means no chat until everybody has finished the race.

Incidents;
If you need a review of an accident please send me a PM with the description of the matter inside 48h from race end and the racing staff will decide how to proceed.

Because we should have a better Melbourne track version, but I don’t know if it will be ready for the 16th of November, I did a little reschedule in the championship and move it to be the third round.

Yes, the track is already running in server. Put the car in the plane and fly to there.

About the laps down situation, I would like to clarify it a bit.

The slower driver, who is been overlapped, should give room and make it easier for the faster driver, don't ignoring the blue flags, but this one should also be cautions on the overlapping, because the slower driver can't just disappear, they are doing their race too.

But don't forget that it's also the responsibility of the driver who is overlapping, to do it in a safe way.

He also should be aware that if someone is going to lost a lap, that means that he is a lot slower than you and at some points of the track he can't just disappear.

But like JJ said, this was just the first round and I think things will get better on the next ones.

I also agree that Stuart put it in a very clear way, thanks for that.

This topic isn't for this kind of discussion, if there's any issues about races, solve them by PM.
