Driving Standards

Practice: 20-minute session for all drivers to prepare for qualifying and races. No tyre restrictions apply.

After 20 minutes, Qualifying begins in the same lobby. Practice times do not carry over. Drivers have 20 minutes to set a competitive lap to determine grid order.

Qualifying Rules

• No tyre restrictions during qualifying.
• Tyre wear will be on for all qualifying sessions
• Be mindful of others setting flying laps — move aside on slow laps.
• If slower on a racing lap, you’re not required to move, but must race fairly.
• Intentional blocking results in grid demotions (up to three strikes).
• Lap times with “Track Cut” warnings are invalid.

• Duration: up to 20 minutes.
• No tyre wear or mandatory stops.
• All driving etiquette rules apply — race cleanly, fairly, and within limits.

• Duration: up to 40 minutes.
• Must use at least two different tyre compounds during the race.
• No specific number of pit stops required.
• All driving etiquette rules apply — race cleanly, fairly, and competitively.

• 1 formation lap before Sprint and Feature races.
• Drivers must hold qualifying positions and engage the Pit Speed Limiter.
• Stay single file; no side-by-side until crossing the start/finish line.
• Leader controls the race start at the line; others may accelerate only once the leader does.

Formula X has no automated flag system. The host may invoke flags manually when required.

Yellow Flags

• Used after major collisions. All drivers must engage Pit Limiter until cleared.

Blue Flags

• Lapped cars must allow leaders past within three corners when requested.
• Communicate clearly when being lapped.

Lapped Cars

• May unlap safely but must not impede or block others.
• If unable to pull away, yield again to faster traffic.
