The practice server for R5 needs to be restarted -configured after the AC update to v1.10.x, I think. Getting checksum mismatch with the new build.

Important Notice

For rounds 5 and 6 the incident report procedure will be updated to RD latest standard. Once a driver gets reported they will be asked for their side of the story via PM. Video evidence as well as a written description can be submitted and will then be included in the report sent to the stewards.

A 24 hours deadline will be given after the incident report submission closure to all the respondent drivers, so all responses must be submitted before Tuesday 23:59 GMT post-race.

This is being applied to ensure a more fair judgement to all the drivers.

Was doing a steady race at the mid field, but my video card decided to overheat (never had the issue before) and I was gone from the race. Was counting with a couple of points but unfortulately that didn't happen. Was p*ssed off for a few days.

 

[Simon Marshall]

I'm shown as DNF

The red zone for Round 5 applies from the start finish line to the exit of Turn 2 (Remus Hairpin) during the first lap of the race. Incidents that occur in this zone will be automatically looked at and may be punished more severely.

Track Limits
Article 6.1 of the 2016 RaceDepartment League Regulations states that all drivers must maintain at least two wheels within the white lines of the track at all times when under normal control of their car. A lift-off to give back time gained ensures a penalty won't be applied.

Teamspeak
Teamspeak will be Mandatory for the league, as the race director may use whisper messages to communicate everything needed. Make sure to properly set up TS for whispers, using the same settings as the screenshot below. Speakers must be activated at all times during qualifying and race.

Dear Managers, you don't need to confirm your drivers, this is mere optional, but it might help us for the spotter guide and getting data out beforehand.

Matheus' note: Please ask your drivers to do at least a lap on the server before race day. We need the Steam GUIDs to asssign the skins.

Somethings wrong with the server. I couldn't start from pits. The practice session time is 0:00 and doesnt change.
