4.3: Any driver missing 2 consecutive events without contacting MF1 Administration will be relieved of their Team Contract.
5: Trackside rules:
5.1: Racing: We will race as gentlemen.
5.1.1: Tires: Dry tires are the only compound allowed during a dry race. If a race is deemed as a wet race by the Stewards then the wet tire compound will be an option, in addition to the dry tires. For modern F1 cars, pilots must use at least 2 of the compounds offered in the race. Drivers can start on any compound they like. Using the qualy tire is not necessary for the race start. Failure to follow any of these rules will result in penalty up to and including disqualification and exclusion from Grand Prix Events.
5.1.2: Unless leaving or entering the pits, driving with all four tires off track is not permitted. Curbing is considered part of the racing surface. Two tires must be on track at all times. Any exceptions will be addressed in the drivers meeting prior to the Grand Prix. Failure to follow this regulation may result in post race penalties up to and including disqualification from the final grid.
5.1.3: Blocking in form of placing oneself in front of the opponent / hindering him on his way forward is not permitted. Your protection against an opponent is to be faster than the opponent. The opponent must always have the possibility to get beside.
5.1.4: Squeezing / pushing the opponent to the limits of the race track is allowed as long as the opponent is given enough space to negotiate the track. The opportunity for both opponents to enter and exit all turns is the goal.
5.1.5: Positions gained by unfair driving, for example shortcutting or jumpstarting, must be given back. Positions not given back will result in post race penalties up to and including disqualification from the final grid.
5.1.6: Striking another car is not allowed. Contact is defined as bumping, punting, clipping and such. Striking or damaging another driver’s car will be reviewed and could result in post race penalties up to and including disqualification from the final grid.
5.2: Slow / damaged cars:
5.2.1: If the car is too damaged, the driver must repair it. If the reparation is not effective enough then the driver must retire.
5.2.2: Missing parts, specifically wings, must be repaired. The only exception to this rule will be the final 3 laps.
5.2.3: Drivers in slow cars must behave predictably. If they are extraordinarily slow and the situation does not allow safely reaching the pits then they must retire.
5.3: Unless explicitly instructed differently, drivers must use the full pit entrance, respecting the solid lines, when entering and exiting the pits. They are not allowed to slow down on the racing area. This can and will be reviewed.
5.4: Race Starts:
5.4.1: The grid must wait for the green given by Automobilista to start.
5.4.2: Grand Prix Events will not be restarted. This will be our one and only “real” start and (barring any major catastrophes) the race will not be restarted under any other circumstances. On this first lap if any driver contacts and affects another drivers race then the driver will be penalized by being required to start from the pit lane of their next Grand Prix.
5.5: Yellow Flag:
5.5.1: When the yellow flag is waved, drivers must not pass. They must keep enough distance to the car ahead.
5.5.2: The physical leader of the grid must keep enough distance to the pace car.
5.5.3: If necessary, when the race restarts, the physical leader must accelerate to a reasonable speed before green. This will be addressed respectively when applied.
5.6: Blue Flag:
5.6.1: Blue flagged drivers are to let the lapping drivers by as soon as possible in an as safe as possible way.
5.6.2: Lapped drivers may only pass the lapping drivers if they are clearly and consistently faster or if the lapping drivers agree to have the lapped drivers race them.
5.7: Pit Entrance:
5.7.1: For safety reasons, please use an auto chat or voice chat to inform everyone about your pit entrance and exit.
5.8: Qualifying:
5.8.1: MF1 uses a public qualifying format. Drivers have 15 minutes to complete their best lap.
