Jardier Community League 2026 Season 1: Split 1 - Powered by Coach Dave Delta

Pre-Event

• If you are unable to make a race, please sign out of the race on SimGrid.
• There will be max of 2 sign outs for the season, if you miss any where you don't sign out you will receive a 15 point deduction.
• If you fail to withdraw to 2 races you will be automatically disqualified from the series and will be banned from next season.

Driving RULES

• Blue flags - please respect blue flags. We apply the same rules as GT racing: If a car makes a move to overtake a car under blue flags, the slower car must yield. There is no requirement for a slower car to immediately jump out of the way once the faster car is within a certain distance/time. Courtesy is expected from both parties.
• Fighting with a car that has already pitted - While it is your right to fight for position with a car that has already pitted, we advise you to think about whether the fight will be beneficial to you in the long term. It may be better to let the driver past to lose as little time as possible.
• Bump drafting is allowed.
• Pit Exit: The car coming out of the pits has the right to rejoin the track within the pit entry lines, cars on track should provide the space to the car leaving the pits. If you cross the pit exit line you can be reported and penalised accordingly. Causing a collision by crossing the lines will be heavily penalised.
• Pit Entry: You must try and keep within the entry lines as much as possible, however it will not be checked unless a collision occurs and is reported.
• Pit Lane: Cars in the fast lane have the right of way, it is on the car in the pit box's responsibility to leave in a safe manner. Unsafe releases that result in contact or the car in the fast lane having to slow down is reportable and penalised.
• Use of off track exploits IS NOT allowed. If you know of any track exploits contact an admin, if you are not sure if something is a track exploit then contact an admin. Abusing track limit exploits will results in a league and community ban. Examples of track limits exploits are Interlagos T6-T7, Paul Ricard T5-T6, Imola chicanes and Acque Minerali (in wet).
• In game chat should not be used during the session. Especially at the end of the race, wait until all drivers have crossed the line, or chat in Discord.

Season Points

• To get any points for the race, you need to finish at least 80% of the laps of the leader.
• Fastest lap: +2 points for the driver with the fastest lap.
• Any drivers tied on points at the end of the championship position subsequently decided by the points total for all races (including drop rounds), then by most wins, second places, etc
• There is 1 drop round this season; the lowest scoring round will not count towards your final championship total. This is a community league, and real life happens. Even though the drop round is available, please do your best to attend as many rounds as you can.

Promotion/Relegation

• The bottom 3 drivers in Split 1 will be relegated to Split 2 for the next season.
• Similarly the top 3 drivers of Split 2 will be promoted to Split 1.
• If the next season has less signups for split 1 then the relegated drivers will be able to stay in split 1, in order of finishing position.
• If one of the top 3 in Split 2 doesn't want to move to split 1 then an admin will judge if this goes to the 4th finishing driver or if one of the relegated drivers can remain.

STEWARDING

• Any incidents you want to report can be done do via the report form. This includes any contacts or anything else you want to report (aggressive overtake, overtaking off track, weaving etc). Report window will close on the Monday 19:00(UK time).
• We enjoy hard racing so will not penalise every contact, however if we feel a pass was too aggressive they will be penalised. Ie using the other car as a brake. Side by side = Back wheels to Front wheels. If side by side you "all the time you need to leave the space".
• Post race time penalties to be applied depending on severity (5s - 90s).
• We will also use license points in this championship. (2x warnings = 1 point, 5s-10s penalty = 1 point, 15-25s = 2 points, 30s = 3 points, 45s+ = 4 points).
• If you accumulate 35s worth of penalties or 4 license points you will receive a qualification ban at the next race you attend, if the next race doesn't have a qualifying session you will start at the back of the grid. 70s worth of penalties or 8 license points you will have to start from the pitlane at your next race. More than 12 license points will be a race ban.
• All decisions are final - No appeals
• Please respect the stewards decision, they volunteer an evening a week to help steward.

Changing Car Mid Season

• No car changes allowed.
