rFactor 2 Rules & General Info

For consistency, we are setting 90 minutes for all 6 events

Edit: this has changed. We are now doing the original number of laps as done in the real events.

 

Track lenghs vary and therefore nr. of laps per event. You can't have the same nr. of laps for all events.

There is no formation lap and standing start because there are always a few who do not lock in properly into their red square for the start. That holds up proceedings indefinitely and may even cause a restart.

 

Thanks for your input. I will think about this

 

CHANGE: FROM TIME TO LAPS

Neil Wood made a good suggestion to change the race length from 90 minutes to the original laps per event.
All 6 events will now be run according to their original laps.
Round 1: Jacarepagua will have 61 laps.
You can see the number of laps for each event on the event page.

 

Do a timed lap on each circuit and do the calculations x laps or times the real fastes lap from 1984

That looks like a solid lap. It helps with any tire if you don't slide too much through the corners and keep it tight, but I'm sure you know that.
One should also not slam the throttle down out of slower corners, because that makes the rear tires initially spin and that also wears the rears. You should have a "grippy" exit.

You can also use the online "Max Verstappen" trick and turn the tire scrub sound to 100% in the menu to hear where you are sliding too much and destroying the tires.
