Tyre and Pit Return Rules

Each driver is limited to 3 sets of tires over the full race weekend.

Return to pits will be set to realistic. This means if you press ESC while out on circuit, your return to the track will be delayed while your car is "Towed" back to the garage. To have the smallest delay possible, you must return to the pits and press ESC in your pit box.

Race Start Procedure

Each race will feature a formation lap, followed by a re-grid and standing start.

Behaviour on track

A few behaviour rules :

- as for all HSO races, it is required you use your real name both in-game and on the forum. Thank you.

- Chatting is STRICTLY FORBIDDEN in race session. It is allowed in qualifying sessions for technical issues only.

- Drive Through : If a driver has to do a drive through, even if there is no pit lane speed limit, he has to drive through the pitlane at 100km/h max (60mph). If he doesn't respect this, he will get a 30s penalty at the end of the race.

- If you have a spin on the course, it is YOUR responsibility to make sure the track is sufficiently clear before you rejoin the race.

- Respect the red condition at the end of the pitlane.

I’m so in...

Everyone please download patch 1.01 and overwrite on your installs. Thank you.

Due to the high amount of interest in the F1 71 season we are running, and in the benefit of adequate preparation of races by one-off drivers, we have decided to introduce a new rule.

Any full time driver who has not confirmed his presence 24 hours before a race (7PM CET on the Saturday) will no longer be able to enter it, and his car will be made available as one off for that race. Those additional one-off cars will thus be announced at 8PM CET saturday before the race.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

En raison du grand intérêt suscité par la saison F1 71 et de la préparation adéquate des courses par les pilotes occasionnels, nous avons décidé d'introduire une nouvelle règle.

Tout pilote à temps plein qui n'a pas confirmé sa présence 24 heures avant une course (19h00 CET le samedi) ne pourra plus y accéder et sa voiture sera mise à la disposition des pilotes occasionnels pour cette course. Ces voitures supplémentaires seront ainsi annoncées à 20h CET le samedi avant la course.

and good rule decision regarding the conformation :regl:

So I was the only one who chose a McLaren and didn't even get a ride lol. How is it fair people are driving in multiple championships. Not only that they have the best car twice. So how are we supposed to be active if the guys with no rides never get to race?

We have something in the works regarding the not-getting-to-drive bit, we're just trying to finalize it behind the scenes.

I'm in for this one, hoping for a decent run :aie:

Francois and Petr both chose a McLaren too. You had a drive in CanAm but you gave it up after not even one race this year, so on that basis we was worried you may do the same in this series and no disrespect, but you do tend to leave championships early. Stick around and grab one of the one off's when they are available.

Any future discussions on this matter do please take them up via PM.

What championships would those be? I haven't been here in 4 years. I left 1 this year because of work and that was only because I wouldn't be there for the first 2 races. I understand though good luck all.

With qualifying being 2 hours long, is it possible to do a lap at the start of qualifying then leave the server for an hour before rejoining towards the end of the two hours.
Will AMS still remember your first lap time?
