ORS | SEASON 8 | PRE RACE BRIEFING
For the finale to season 8 we head to the much loved Circuit de Spa-francorchamps for 48 laps in the dry. The weather forecast shows sleet and this will be included on race start, however the remaining race will be in dry conditions.
See track settings at the end of the post for details.
This track is very straight forward with the ORS white line rule for all corners. Take special care around Eau Rouge (Turns 3,4,5) to avoid cutting the white lines on entry, mid corner and exit. If you do cut the corner by accident you MUST let off the gas for 2 seconds and/or if you gained a position you must yield and move back into your previous position. I will note that you cannot use any run offs unless used to avoid causing an accident.
If you are found to be cutting corners consistently and/or using run offs to gain advantage frequently then you will be penalised by the stewards. Penalties can range from point deductions, race bans and up to disqualifications from the entire ORS season 8. Ensure you have read all the rules in the opening post (page 1).
Regarding the pit exit at Spa-Francorchamps, it will spit you out straight onto the racing line if you are giving full gas while in auto drive and cause you to cut the pit exit line. I suggest keeping it at half throttle and some steering to the right to ensure you do not cut the exit line and pull in front of other drivers coming out of turn 1. Once out of the pits keep right. Remember the car behind has right of way so please use common sense to avoid any collisions.
If you find yourself off the track be mindful when rejoining, please be aware of your position on the track relative to your fellow races. Drivers rejoining the track must give way to race traffic and not become an obstruction.
