If a drivers drops out before 5 laps is complete, 1/4 points will be awarded.
If a driver drops you after 5 laps is complete, 1/2 points will be awarded.

Qualifying

Qualifying will start at 8pm GMT on race night. Each Qualifying session will be held over a 20 minute period. The lobby will be set to 30 minutes so that drivers can finish their last laps at the 20 minute mark. Damage will be set on during the qualifying period and  both classes of car will be on circuit at the same time so it is up to the drivers to make their own space.

Race

Each race will be run over a length of 200 kilometres, or as near to as possible.

There will be a rolling start and LMP2 will form up before GTE. An additional lap will be added to the lap length to accommodate for this rolling start. During a rolling start, drivers will line up in rows of two, with the pole winner starting on the right hand side. The pole winner will be the 'pace car' during this formation lap, the pole winner will be restricted to no more than 160kph. As the field nears the end of the formation lap, this speed limit will be reduced to 100kph as to ensure all cars are in formation as they approach the start.

To start the race, once the pole winner is on the start/finish straight he must call '3, 2, 1, Go'. If the pole winner does not call this out then the race will start once he crosses the start/finish line. Drivers must stay in position until after the start/finish line.  

If there is large accident at any point during the race a 'safety car' my be called. The race leader will then become the effective 'safety car'. This will then give time for the track to clear and cars to be repaired. Once the last car has joined the back of the pack, they must notify everyone that the race can restart. The 'safety car' will be allowed to return to racing speed at ANY point between the final corner and the start finish line. Drivers will be allowed to pass from this moment onwards and do not need to wait until the start/finish line.

During the race, all competitors are required to make a mandatory pitstop for at LEAST TYRES. It is down to the competitors decision as to whether or not they require fuel or repairs.

Once the race leader cross the line at the end of the last lap then they are the victor. All other cars will then finish at the end of the current lap they are on.

To be classified, drivers must of completed 70% of the race laps. If a driver finishes the race but has completed less than 70% than the winners distance then 1/2 points will be awarded.

quick question. above it says all assists are allowed, but in the lobby settings page it only lists ABS as allowed. Which is the correct setting?

Sorry, my mistake. It is allowed.
