Hi, Apologies, I'm not going to be able to compete this Saturday at round 2 as i'm away on business. Should be the only time this will happen for the series however. If i can carry on at round 3?

Servers are decided each week from the current championship standings. If your combined points from pre-qualification and round 1 are enough to be in the top 48 at that point you'll get a slot on the server. Any absences that week will raise the cut accordingly so it may be more like top 50-52.

Regarding streaming the race, we are looking at getting timings broadcast too. It may mean having to have a separate window, hopefully we can get it sorted for Saturday.

Well I'm sorry to announce that i will also miss round 2 due to the same family health issues again...i know i used my one time absence last week and as much as i would love to race it's much more important that i will be with my family...i don't know if that means that i have to withdraw from the championship or if i become a reserve driver cause i still don't know if i'm going to be able to do any of the last 3 rounds...anyways i take full responsibility for any actions deemed necessary and please tell me how you will procced with this...thank you in advance for understanding.

Game changer.

Could someone please point me to the thread where it mentions if pit stop is mandatory or not?

Thanks.

If stops were mandatory, it'd be in the Brands briefing.
I don't see mention of it which means I have to assume stops are not mandatory.

Thanks, I'm glad I'm not the only one who was wondering.

My thoughts exactly, although assuming things is the mother of all...

It is just as mandatory as during the last races

. All up to the driver to decide what to do with his MINI.

I'm going to have to miss this round too. I was diagnosed with a torn cornea on my left eye yesterday. Saw doctor and thought that would be the end of it but it's worse today so seem a different doctor. Both ended up in hospital visits with very different treatments.
Right now I'm trying to type this message with one eye whilst in excruciating pain. Sorry but i had no way to see this coming...
