One more question about IRC: It will be tolerated when we change our drivers and in that time (2 laps) there will be no team member on the IRC channel?

yes
One major rule change made for Round 5 and onward:

Rule K2.3 formerly read:

Quote :2.3) Drivers ahead of the leader at the time of the full-course yellow may pass the SC and continue around the circuit to re-join the end of the queue. These drivers may not race one another. Drivers behind the leader at the time of the full-course yellow must follow in on-track running order, not in race position order. Once the leading car has assumed its place behind the SC, the running order is set-if the leader pits, the following car takes the head of the line, regardless of whether it is on the lead lap.

In response to complaints from several teams regarding lapped cars being mixed in among the leaders, we have developed the following rule change (adapted from Formula 1 and NASCAR rules with similar effect):

Quote :2.3) Drivers ahead of the race-leaing car at the time of the full-course yellow may pass the SC and continue around the circuit to re-join the end of the queue. These drivers may not race one another.

2.4) When the SC crosses the line on the first full SC period lap, all lapped cars between the leader and the last lead-lap car will be instructed by the race marshals to pass the leader and proceed to the rear of the queue, maintaining relative position. These cars will be given adequate time under the SC period to perform a pit stop, but should not pit before being waved around.

2.5) On the subsequent restart, all waved-around cars as described in Rule K2.4 must start at the rear of the queue, behind all cars that were either on the lead lap at the time of the yellow flag, or that were not waved around. This does not apply to cars that fall under the jurisdiction of Rule K2.3.

In essence, this means that all cars between the leader and the last car on the lead lap will get a free lap back. These cars will be called out by number and ordered to pass the SC, go around the track at speed, and re-join the end of the queue. It also means that the lead-lap cars (the ones that were on the lead lap at the time of the SC) will line up nose-to-tail for any SC restart, with lapped cars and waved-around cars behind them. This may extend the length of SC periods by about one lap.

If anyone has questions regarding this change, I encourage you to voice them. In order for this to work smoothly, we need all drivers to fully understand the rules.

Thanks!
