The qualification race takes place in two groups. Normally the GT2 starts first and has 15min time to fight for pole position. After 15mins the GT2 will be advised to enter the pits and the GT1 is allowed do enter the track.  Also the GT1 has 15min time to fight for pole position.

 

If you are on an in- or outlap the car on a fast lap has priority. Because the qualification race is a closed session you should be there in time and even better not losing the connection to the server.

 

WarmUp:
The warm-up starts directly after finishing the qualification and has a maximun duration of 15min.

 

Reconnaissance und start
The grid drives into their starting positions. It is a must for everyone to do this lap.
The formationlap will be driven with the first lap of the race. Every driver has to hold his line and should avoid doing crazy maneuvers. Hard braking and acceleration is forbidden. The currnet leader is allowed to set the speed with a maximum of 160km/h. Then he recollects the field early enough prior start/finish and reduces his speed to a maximum of 100km/h. The leader of the GT2 class should leave a safe gap(10sec) to the last GT1 to give everybody enough room for the first coner.

5. Race

As soon as the overal leader crosses the start/finish line you are allowed to overtake. We especially expect respect during the first corners to avoid serious incidients. The races are quite long, so no race is won during the first corners.
Overtaking and especially lapping should be done fine and with respect of each other from both drivers. It is not allowed to change the line when your oppenent is already alongside you. Several line changes prior the overtaking maneuvers are not allowed too. Respect the lines of your oppenents. The GT1 has to search their way arround the GT2. There is no commitment that the GT2 has to go off the line.
