1st race of the 5th season of Finnish Semi-Endurance League will be held on May 6, 2017!

Details of the race:

Track: Aston Cadet Reverse (AS1R)
Cars: UF1000 and XFX (UF1+XFX)
Race length: 33 laps
Mandatory pit stops: 3
80% limit: (minimum lap amount to get classified): 26 laps

XFX is XF GTI (XFG) with 20% intake restriction.

Race type: Race has special regulations:

Pitlane is open only during laps: 8-12, 20-23 and 26-30. Remember, that pitlane is only open when race leader is on one of those laps.

Race starts in a formation session. Speed limit in formation session is 80km/h (or 50mph). At 20:00-20:02 (UTC+3), drivers drive in single-file formation. Warming tires during this is allowed. At 20:02 (again, time is in UTC+3), drivers will go to double-file formation. Warming tires from now on is prohibited. At 20:03 (UTC+3), race begins.

Instructions will be displayed in chat as race messages. I have scheduled commands that at 20:00, instructions related to formation session and single-file appear. Then, at 20:02, instructions making a double-file formation appear. And finally, at 20:03, will be displayed message Green Flag! (or something like that).

Those drivers who don't follow the rules in formation session will be kicked.

If necessary, yellow and red flags may be used. If red flag is shown, race will be stopped either temporarily or permanently. Drivers must follow instructions/orders from admins. Drivers may also be forced to use the same speed that they used in Formation session if necessary.

Point system is different than it normally is:
1st place: 25 points
2nd place: 20 points
3rd place: 15 points
4th place: 10 points
5th place: 8 points
6th place: 4 points
7th place: 2 points
8th place: 1 point

Minimum license: S2

Schedule (all times are in UTC+3):

- 15:45: Qualifying begins
- 19:45: Qualifying ends and Warm-up/Briefing begins.
- 20:00: Warm-Up/Briefing ends and Formation session in Single-file formation begins
- 20:02: Formation session in Single-file formation changes to Double-file formation
- 20:03: Formation session ends and race begins

Race length: approximately 40 mintues.

A suggestion for future, (if similar combo will be used).

Since UF1 was some 2sec slower (per lap), would be more interesting if UF1 drivers had less mandatory pitstops than XFX drivers (for example 2pits vs 3 pits).

Anyway, thanks for the race!

Thank you for this suggestion and compliments

This could work when there are no pit windows or any other requirements related to pit stops made by Airio in race. Because I cannot configure different amounts of required pit stops for specific cars in Airio, this could work only when I'm not using any requirements related to pit stops made by Airio. Otherwise, drivers driving for example in UF1 instead of XFX, would still get a DT-penalty when entering last lap for making too few pit stops.

I'm still going to keep this suggestion noted though
