1.1. All Regulations presented are drawn up to prevent any such interpretation, differing that of the Stewards and/or Organisers, becoming apparent.

1.2. It is imperative that all Drivers read the Regulations to have a basic understanding of how this series will work.

1.3. If a Competitor is unsure of any Regulation written, they are free to ask a series Official.

1.4. These Regulations are live and are subject to amendments and/or additions at any given time.

1.5. This is a Championship containing ten Events/Rounds at various venues across the world.

1.6. It is important for everyone in and around this series to follow all Regulations when necessary to avoid any mishaps and/or incidents which can introduce consequences to those at fault.

1.7. All Events in this series will be held in a Community Club which everyone must join. The Club ID is "1058942".

2.1. All Events/Rounds will be run under the same format which includes un-official Practice, official Practice, Qualifying and Race sessions.

2.2. Un-official Practice is regarded as Lobbies that get opened by a series Official or by a Competitor for others to practice for the upcoming event. However, these Lobbies should still follow the room guidelines, found in APPENDIX "B".

2.3. Official Practice is regarded as Lobbies opened on the day of the Event ready for the sessions to begin. All rooms opened will follow the guidelines set out, again which can be found in APPENDIX "B". The official Practice session will last one hour. For times please see APPENDIX "C".

2.4. Qualifying will come immediately after the official Practice session has run its course. The session will be run in the in-game qualifying mode and the timer will be set to twenty minutes. As by the standard qualification rules, the Drivers will be ordered in terms of fastest to slowest qualifying times.

2.5. The Race session will start immediately after Qualifying and will last for the desired Race distance. This can be found in APPENDIX "C".

2.6. After the Race session has ended and everyone has been returned to the Lobby screen, all Competitors are free to leave the Lobby.

2.7. Once the Event is over all Competitors are encouraged to write a Race Review on the appropriate forum, i.e. GTPlanet / GT6 Online Racing / GT6 Racing Series / [GRO] Trofeo di Ferrari Enzo.

3.1. For reasons of Competitor Performance Balance (CPB), all Drivers must take part in a Driver Grading session to be able to participant in any Event on the Calendar.

3.2. All Drivers will be scored based on their skill of maneuvering the vehicle, control of speed and, of course, their lap time. Their score will be placed on a CPB scale ranging from 1-5. The lower the score, the faster the Driver.

3.3. A Driver may be re-graded at any time if they feel they have improved skill-wise.

3.4. The Driver Grading will be held in a Lobby hosted by myself (J_Starscream) or another Steward/Official in the Community Club.

3.5. Each Driver will perform their test individually.

3.6. Whilst in the Lobby, each Driver will be asked to perform an out-lap, four flying laps and one in-lap to return to the pits. This will all be held in Practice mode and any Stewards or Officials present will be using the Watch Race function.


3.5. All Drivers will be graded throughout the season based on their performances.

3.6. You will be able to find all CPB scores (once available) on Page "3" of this post.

3.7. As found in Article "3.3", the CPB scores can be updated at the Official's discretion.

4.1. There will be only one Drivers' Championship and one Teams' Championship due to only one car being used for racing at all times.

4.2. If there are two or more Drivers that finish the season with the same amount of scored points. Then the Driver with the most first places will receive the higher Championship position. If the two or more Drivers are found to have the same amount of first places then the most second places will receive the higher Championship position, this will continue until we find a Driver with more amount of higher finishes.

5.1. The Points System that will be implemented matches that of FIA standard series', adopting the top ten finishing positions to acquire points towards the Championship.

5.2. Points at each Event will be awarded in the following order;

1st place = 25 points
2nd place = 18 points
3rd place = 15 points
4th place = 12 points
5th place = 10 points
6th place = 8 points
7th place = 6 points
8th place = 4 points
9th place = 2 points
10th place = 1 point

5.3. There will be no bonus points awarded at any of the Events. This includes acquiring Pole Position and the Fastest Race Lap.

6.1. Replacement of Engine Oil during any session is permitted.

6.2. Restoration of Body Rigidity during any session is permitted.

6.3. Only the Tyre Compounds stated to be used during the season are legal. Any other Compounds are not and will carry consequences if they are found to be used by any Competitor.

7.1. Although it should not be necessary to say, all Drivers must bring a common sense approach to Racing Etiquette to each Event.

7.2. Like most real world series', this is a non-contact series.

7.3. It is understandable that occasionally contact will be made between two Drivers possibly because of small lag, or under high-pressure situations.

7.4. Drivers with any minor or irregular Connection issues will not be penalised. However, they may be asked to retire from the Event session to attempt to improve their Connection. If they are asked during the Race, the Driver will receive half points of last place, if applicable. Please see Article "9.3".

7.5. In the interest of maintaining minimal contact, every Driver is permitted to only one defensive move per straight. Any more than one intentional move and the Driver will be penalised.

7.6. Driving in the opposite direction to the Race is strictly prohibited and can warrant a Black Flag being given to that Driver. However, if the Driver is found to moving his Car from a dangerous position, the Driver will be exempt from penalty from that incident as they were maneuvering as safely as possible to rejoin the race.

7.7. If a Driver exceeds Track Limits and takes to the grass, they must show good precaution when reentering the circuit in safety of not impeding other Drivers. Rules on Track Limits can be found in Article "8".

8.1. The Track Limits at every Venue is defined by the painted white lines and permanent curbs.

8.2. All Drivers must keep at least two wheels inside of the painted white lines at all times. This does not include those wheels on the permanent curbs. If a Driver is found to have two wheels on the Grass/Astroturf/Rumble Strips and the other two wheels on the permanent curbs, they are immediately subject to penalty if necessary.

8.3. It is forbidden to gain time by shortening or increasing the Track length.

9.1. If a Driver disconnects from an unofficial Practice session or an official Practice session. They are free to rejoin the Lobby and the Circuit when needed. They will not lose time nor be penalised for such actions.

9.2. If a Driver disconnects during a Qualifying session, they will be marked down on the Championship Standings as 'DNQ', signifying that they had not qualified for that Event.

9.3. If a Driver disconnects during a Race session, they will receive half points for last place in the race at the time of disconnection, but only if it is possible. For example, if there are 11 Drivers currently in the Race at the time Driver #7 disconnects, he will not receive any points because last place (11th) does not receive any points towards the Championship.

10.1. There will be a Warning and Penalty System in place to deal with Drivers who have breached any Regalations, in an appropriate manner.

10.2. All Warnings and Penalties will be issued after the Event has concluded.

10.3. The Warning and Penalty System will be explained properly in APPENDIX "A".

APPENDIX A; WARNING AND PENALTIES

The Warning and Penalty System will be used throughout the series;
  • Every Driver will be warned on first instance for every incident unless the initial incident is severe enough to heavily affect another Driver during any session.
  • If a Driver receives four warnings over the course of a season they will be asked to stay in the Pit Lane during Qualifying for the next Event. This is to make sure they start from the rear of the field but without losing out on having a chance at receiving points.
  • If a Driver receives a further three warnings, points gained at the next Event will not be counted towards their Championship tally.
  • If a Driver then receives yet another three warnings over the season, they will not be allowed to participate in the next Event and may have to book another Driver Grading session before entering their next Event. If a Driver does not complete another Grading, they will not be permitted to enter any upcoming Events until they complete it.
  • If a Driver manages to achieve a total of eleven warnings (another warning after Event exclusion), they will be placed on probation and will most likely lose their seat for the rest of the season. They will also be required to complete another Driver Grading session.
  • During the Race, if a Driver continuously abuses Track Limits, they will be disqualified from the Event and any points acquired from the Event will not be added onto their Championship total. This also applies to a Driver continuously breaking the rules and/or not showing proper Driving Etiquette throughout any session.
  • An inexperienced Driver may be advised to sit out from an Event if the Officials believe they will be a major danger to others on circuit.
  • Drivers found using the incorrect Rear Wing type(s) or measurements, found in APPENDIX "D", will be asked to change them before the next Event. There will be no penalty awarded for the first mention but will be awarded if the Driver has not changed their Rear Wing by their next Event. This penalty will be a +10 Second Time Penalty added to their total Race time.
APPENDIX B; LOBBY GUIDELINES

Below are the guidelines that all rooms associated with the Ferrari Enzo Trophy must follow;
  • All room modes must be set to either Practice/Race or Practice/Qualify/Race.
  • There is no rule against which Track in unofficial Practice Lobbies. However, official Practice Lobbies and Event Lobbies must be held at the appropriate Track.
  • All room settings for each Event will be posted on the appropriate forum at a reasonable time.
  • In every associated Lobby, all Driving Aids except ABS and Driving Line must be turned off. All other Driving Aids are not permitted for use throughout the series.
  • Tuning must remain "Unrestricted".
  • Tyres must be restricted to "Racing Hards" as no other compounds (except Intermediate and Rain tyres, of course) are permitted.
  • Grip Reduction must always be set to "real".
  • Mechanical Damage must always be set to "Light".
  • Tyre and Fuel Consumption must always be set to "Normal".
  • If a Competitor is unsure when opening a room, they are always allowed to ask an official or anyone else on the forum for advice.
APPENDIX C; SESSION TIMES

Session times will be explained in full in this Appendix;
  • All official Practice sessions will last one hour, unless told otherwise due to delay or any other legitimate reason for delay.
  • All Qualifying sessions will last twenty minutes. This will be set in the Event Lobbies.
  • All Race sessions will last one hour. Unless shortened by a long delay during Practice.
APPENDIX D; VISUAL REGULATIONS
