Series Announcement
Following a successful trial at the 3rd Annual GTPlanet London 12 Hour, a decision has been made by the Series Promoters to increase grid capacity to 14 Cars for all remaining Events this year, apart from the Fuji GT 500km.
This will result in not only an increase in competition on track, but also results in an increased proportion of Teams qualifying for each Event, and the addition of a small number of Part Season Franchises.
There will however be a reduction in a the intensity of Blue Flags that will be issued at the Events listed below;
- Bathurst 12 Hour
- 24 Hours Nurburgring
- 6 Hour Ruhr-Pokal-Rennen
- 1000km Suzuka
At these Events, Blue Flags may be issued in the following situations only;
- GT3 field about to Lap TCN classes for the first time at the start of a Race.
- Multiple GT3 Cars about to Lap a single TCN Car.
- Multiple GT3 Cars about to Lap multiple TCN Cars.
- Single GT3 Car about to Lap multiple TCN Cars.
It is recommended that all drivers race using a 1st person viewpoint that includes a rear-view mirror, and have proximity arrows switched on. Faster and slower Classes are also asked to take greater care when interacting.
