No chatting during quali or main race
Pitstop:
The mandatory pitstop had to be made earliest after the first fully finished lap and at least one lap before the race ends. All 4 tires had to be changed!
General Behaviour
‘Race Hard, but Race Fair’
We all want a good race, so that means think about your fellow racers. Overtake cleanly, give your fellow racer space on the track, and generally conduct yourself to the highest standards. Here are a few pointers:-
Overtaking
Overtaking must be done cleanly, with no or minimal contact. Leave the ‘dodgem-style’ of driving in the fairground where it belongs. It does not belong on the track or on an ICON server.
Being Overtook
‘Brake testing’ and deliberate weaving in front of an overtaking car is seen as unsporting and will jeopardise your championship position. This does not mean you can’t defend your position fairly and cleanly, however.
Rejoining the race
Take care when rejoining the race, either after an incident or when rejoining from the pit-lane. There will be other drivers on track travelling much faster and wrecking their race as you rejoin by not paying attention to their position will be seen as causing an avoidable accident.
Conduct
No insults, No swearing. No arguing. We don’t expect to have to revisit this rule ever. So be warned.
Be Fair
Don’t take people out of the race. If you hit someone, let them pass before rejoining the race. Apologise at the end of the race.
Observe the Rules of the Track
Let lapping cars by when you are blue-flagged. Slow-down and don’t overtake when yellow-flagged. Observe penalties such as drive-throughs and stop-go penalties.
Sign-ups: (36/32)

P.S.: We are working on a Livestream with commentary at the quali and race. A "skin thread" for the highres skins will be created soonish.
Yes, a championship has to finish anyway with a final round. (I don´t know If i can take part, just let me know the date (finger crossed no friday....)
Both noticed and thanks for letting us know
@Klouczech: I think so, cause you are 13th in championship, someone might take your place.
Only a few days left to Round 4, and as we know at the moment, there are 18(!) place aviable in the main race/quali. Good chances for everyone to come "through" the shootout(s).
First, I want to thank you all for reading and for your kind comments.
Second, I am very sorry to say, but the next number of the iCON News will be delayed. Because of private/work stuff I wasn´t really able to finish the newspaper for the month april
This decision was made for the quality of our little newspaper. I don´t want to publish a newspaper which isn´t really finished. Quality goes before quantity and so there will be at the end of may a double number. I hope you understand this reasons for the delay.
Sorry about the delay, and thanks for your patience.
