Success Ballast
To keep the racing close and the championship competitive across the grid, we've introduced a success ballast system for this season.
Each round features two races, and ballast will be applied based on total points scored across both races. The top 5 point scorers will carry ballast into the next round:
1st highest points scored +40 kg
2nd highest points scored +32 kg
3rd highest points scored +24 kg
4th highest points scored +16 kg
5th highest points scored +8 kg
Carryover Bonus:
If a driver carries success ballast from a previous round and finishes in the top 5 for points again, they will receive an extra +5 kg on top of their earned ballast and for every round that they socre enough points to finish in the top 5.
for the latest lmgt3 challenge news and information please see the lmgt3 challenge info channel in the grdc discord.
If you are unable to make a race please sign out of the round in the 'races' tab. If you fail to sign out it will affect your SimGrid attendance ratio and could prevent you from entering races. If you fail to turn up or sign out of 3 rounds you will automatically be disqualified from the championship.
We have a transparent and robust stewarding process. Stewards will automatically look at any contact incidents from lap one. Anything from lap two onwards requires a incident report form. Stewarding is recorded and posted on GRDC TV for full transparency on how the stewards come to a decision.
Please note that we will be adding in any new track(s) that arrive in the May update so Round 6 will most likely be the round that is changed. More details once the update is out.
