Sessions:
Race sessions will be listed in the calendars and test sessions by teams. Race sessuions will be on Saturdays and you have from 12:00am to 12:00am GMT to show screenshots for your laps.

We are under NO circumstances going to increase the amount of time given to set hotlaps. The reasons for this are numerous.

Firstly, I do not intend for the series to turn into a competition where you can set times at any point during a year or week to earn points as this would heavily decrese variety of results. Not having this variety would kill the series as people have already left due to the results arent varied enough and it was too spread apart. I wish to work on ways to bring the time difference DOWN and not to INCREASE it.

Secondly, It defeats the whole object of the series and renders the calendar useless.

Finally, I understand that some may have other things they have to do and have fully taken this into account but although it would help these people it would also cause newcomers to find the series extremely boring as they may behind all the time, especially if they have just bought the game and are new to it.

Here's the temporary livery of the car.

Had a good run around silverstone, final livery to be launched in a week and a half

Hi i'm keen to take part and enter a team, but it concerns me that i could change the performance of my car and give it say 1000bhp set a lap that is outragously fast, screenshot it and post it, so are you going to be able to put some sort of performance cap on the teams say max 800bhp??

NEWS RELEASE - W.R.T Car breaks cover at Silverstone Shakedown.

The new HSBC W.R.T Renault broke cover earlier today for a shakedown test at a sunny Silverstone. Until now, an interim livery was used, however the final livery was revealed today at Silverston.

Driver EGW was on duty for the british team, as he set about getting to know the car.

The team's main focus was to ensure that the car responded positively to set-up changes, as well as testing the new Bridgestone tyres. EGW was positive about the car's potential. "It's a good package, obviously I won't know until I push it to the limit, which I hope to do tomorrow." The team will stay on at Silverstone for the remainder of the week.

No times were published.
