STEWARDS ADVICE
Red Flag: No
‘If you can’t make the judgement call, 120 metres into a 120-minute race, to just be a little bit sensible, don’t start the race.’
Opening lap discipline has been relatively good so far in this series, don’t let the concentration levels waiver here. A narrow track that only has 1 racing line through S2 demands your respect for the track and your fellow competitors.
A reminder that Lap 1 penalties are increased for repeat offenders, with a NQ penalty awaiting after 3 incidents.
Good luck to all drivers. Any question? Please do ask in the series chat channel on Discord.
