Season III - F1 2017 RACEONOZ Formula One World Championship (PS4)

Lets just say @Jurassic Mark would have won in a landslide

I’ll take it!

5th wasn’t it? No one could cut any votes from Pepsi for that one

Well, it’s too late to take back the Driver Of The Day award now. It made it onto my Facebook page

good work..im currently taking lessons from my mate Alonso hope to have a good crack, if i can stay connected this week, have been practicing hard.

We have a week off for Australia Day mate, next round is the 2 x 25% Malaysia sprint round

I'll be trackside at the #B12hr this week Gents, no Malaysia for this guy. Good luck!

given the recent exodus from div1b, i'm going to run no assists the remaining 6 rounds so this is a heads up that i will be slower into & out of the corners for anyone i'll have the chance to race with

div1 guys still running abs i see so i will too

D1 only runs ABS, and that’s all we have ever used

copy that red leader, i thought y'all were running no assists

Might be warrior you’re thinking of lol, just ABS since the wheel lock ups aren’t really fine tuned, I’ve done some driving without abs and it’s jist smoke screens 24/7 ( career mode )

Only no ABS racing I’ve done was during 2015 in GTP endurance series, definitely puts a different aspect on the racing building courage every lap to find the sweet spot to overtake under brakes,

DRIVERS BRIEFING R14 - Malaysia Grand Prix - 2 x 12 Laps
Previous Winner: Seth



Please read the following carefully and 'like' it when you have read and understood it.

TRACK LIMITS: As per our rules and regs drivers must keep 2 wheels on the ripple strips or white lines at all times. We all make a mistake or 2, but if you are caught "continually and obviously" running outside the track limits to gain advantage you will be penalized by the stewards group.


CONTACT: CONTACT IS TO BE AVOIDED AT ALL TIMES. If you make contact with the car in front and gain an advantage, you MUST REDRESS and give the place back. Failure to do so could result in a penalty from the stewards group.


PASSING: Passing is far more difficult with these new cars. You must set up your passes accordingly and not pass recklessly.

Sepang has a couple of key passing spots that will reward you if you set up the previous sweeping sessions well


SWERVING: You are NOT permitted to swerve from side to side on the straights. Drivers may only change direction ONCE on corner entry.


PRE-RACE: You must wait until a call to ready in the PS4 chat. This will be approximately 45 seconds after the F1 intro sequence, more than enough time to setup a race strategy. DO NOT hit X until the ready call is sent.


FORMATION LAP: This season will see the introduction of the formation lap to set the clutch bitepoint and to warm up tyres. Please avoid overtaking other cars and leave space.


TURN 1 LAP 1: You can't win the race at turn 1, but you can certainly lose it. Take care into the first corner and leave plentiful space for other drivers, as this is the most risky part of the race.


PIT LINES: Use the pit lane lines as indicated. Do not charge into the pit lane as you risk damaging your car and disrupting the race. Commit early to avoid potentially causing a serious accident. Stay within the lines, you may not cut the exit line AT ALL, otherwise you will receive a warning.


PIT STOPS: This season will introduce realistic pit stops. You must slow down to the indicated speed limit otherwise you will earn a stop and go penalty. You must also pull away from the pits using the clutch, and deactivate the pit limiter on the pit exit line.


BLUE FLAGS: Please observe blue flags, and move out of the way of faster cars if you are being lapped. You should be aware of the leaders coming up on you, and move out of the way as soon as possible. Best to get off the race line, and with a small lift let them go, so you can continue the fight with those in your class. Failure to observe blue flags WILL result in a penalty.


STEWARDS GROUP AND RACE PROTESTS: You are to PM myself, @Viperzed & @Hatfield should you want to raise a protestz The main Stewards group thread will have all the necessary info in it, regarding rules and regs, and the protest procedure. Please read it and understand how it works.

PENALTY POINTS: For this season you can only be awarded Penalty Points if you have been protested, severely infringe appropriate driving standards, fail to upload your pole position lap, make a track limit infringment on the lap, quit without retiring or spam the PS4 Group Chat.


GROUP CHAT: The chat will be used to convey vital information between sessions. Please do not spam the chat during a qualifying or race session unless it is to warn drivers regarding lag.


QUITTING: This is a huge problem in this game, remember in this series, a safety car will bring you back into the fight. As usual, if you need to leave, make sure you retire the car before leaving the lobby. Failure to do so will result in 3 penalty points against your name. It is also asked that you do not chuck a hissy fit and take out the brake markers. The rage quitting is becoming far too frequent recently and is heavily affecting the race results. In all ROOZ races you must aim to finish the race and/or not cause problems for those still racing. Please do not exit the race unless you absolutely need to.


RECORD YOUR RACE!: Please remember to record your footage via pre recording it or saving it after the race. If you want to protest anything, we can only act on the info we have in front of us, failure to do so will not enable us to view things from your game perspeective, and with some of the issues we have seen, this could have a massive influence on how the stewards group will view and rule on an incident.

Hopefully we can get a decent grid tonight for another awesome sprint round.
With @razor4797 up north, I will be hosting tonight unless someone obliges.

Unfortunately looks like I won’t make it. Wife has dragged me to the shops. Was looking forward to leading the pack again (assuming it’s reverse grid for race 2).

With the schecule constantly being pushed back, the minumum participant rule
will no longer apply.

Well my race was extremely amazing night, full grid and everything was at perfection, me and Jono battled hard for P1, things later on went south when Jono got very dirty and rammed me off the road for no reason, I’ll be making a protest and hoping he loses all the points he got during tonights race

Yeah good race gentlemen
Bottom 2 score no points and FL is glitched

Will have something up this week guys regarding the future of the series.

Don't get me wrong i'll happily take 25 points but having 6 cars on the grid was disappointing. Hopefully next week we will have a bigger grid.

Ah yes, full credit to this man for getting a very long overdue win!
