Sean Lee (microspecv) has been excluded from all NDR events for 12 months, effective immediately. His conduct in the MRc E-Challenge Round 1 and MRc BF1 League Round 4 was referred by the stewards of those meetings to the NDR Board of Directors, who came to the conclusion that Lee has violated the same rules that he was placed on probation for following the GT2 Challenge 2021 Round 6.

Mr. Lee is hereby immediately excluded from participating in all NDR events for a period of 12 months. The remainder of the probationary period will be served at the conclusion of the exclusion, and extended to 6 months total.

This does not impact his ability to request our sanctioning of the Layout Racing League, but would prohibit him taking part as a racer.

Borislav Botev has completed his probationary period without additional action being required, so his probation has been allowed to expire, and with it, his suspended exclusion from NDR events.

9. Race Start:
Each race will have a grid presentation after the lights turn green. Once this presentation is finished, the start procedure will begin with the 5 second signal.

An insim head-up display will appear, with five darkened lights. After 5 seconds, each light will illuminate red at one second intervals. After a pause of between 3 and 7 seconds, the lights will extinguish and the race will be started.

10. Safety Car:
On Restarts, the Safety Car will pull away from the field after Turn 8. It must not be overtaken before it crosses the 1st Safety Car line.

Overtaking is not permitted on SC restarts until YOU have crossed the start-finish line.

11. Adding Time to the Race
The race is scheduled for 45 minutes, plus one lap. In the event of a Safety Car or Virtual Safety Car, time will be added to the race time, up to a maximum time of 60 minutes plus one lap.

Safety Car:
For each complete lap of SC: 115 seconds will be added to the race time.
For the lap of deployment, (approximate %age of lap left to run115s)0.5 will be used to divide the full lap, and added to the complete lap total. Example, Leader is at split 1 when SC is called, (115x0.66)x0.5=76s (rounded down)

Virtual Safety Car:
Each second of VSC will be multiplied by 0.9 and that figure added back to the race time after the restart.

No time will be added if the deployment and race restart occur with less than 5 minutes remaining in the race.

12. End of Race
After finishing the race, please slow WELL BELOW racing speeds after Turn 1 and proceed to parc ferme, located beyond the T1 runoff. The top 3 shall report to the podium via the following route:

Take a hard left into the gap in the wall between Turns 2 and 3, and follow the concrete ramp to the podium area. P1 is in the middle, P2 is to driver's right, P3 is to driver's left.

Top three and anyone else wishing to be interviewed on the broadcast should join the Commentary Box Waiting Room, and one of the commentators will move you to the Commentary Box.

13. Miscellany:
Do NOT under any circumstances Shift+P or Shift+S from on course during the race without authorization from Race Control.

You do NOT need permission to retire once you are in the pit lane.

If you suffer a lost connection or timeout from the server during the race, you are not permitted to rejoin the race.

Stop & Go penalties may ONLY be taken from the penalty box located at the location noted above.

Please post any procedural questions in this thread.

Good luck!

Car 46 raced and made rash moves on Car 7, made contact, even though car 46 is 3 laps behind car 7.

Car 46 - Warning - Unlapping in an unsafe manner.

The stewards remind all drivers that lapped cars do have the right to unlap themselves if they have the pace to do so, but must do so in a safe manner.
