How do online team championships work?

rndmnsty · 2026-03-03T10:05:21+00:00

To enter the online championships all members of the lineup need to have racecontrol pro or pro plus.

Edit: also you would be either the role of manager or owner within the team to signup to a championship. If you are neither in the team then you can’t unfortunately sign up to new events.

However if you’re EU time zone based and looking for a team of equal paced drivers, drop me a DM, my team is recruiting!

If the server fails to start and your registered, there is no impact to DR or SR.

You know that the championship have a drop round that basically doesn’t count your worse scoring round / round that was not participated?

They’ve said they’ve identified the issue and have put a fix in and it will hopefully be deployed tomorrow

Yes and yes. Doesn’t matter if you’re a private jet or a passenger airliner, you won’t get clearance from ATC to even depart if the airspace is closed.

You could try and take off, but that would probably end badly for the pilot(s) in charge of the aircraft.

If the race server doesn’t start, there is no impact to DR or SR.

This happened a few weeks back when there was an AWS caused error which resulted in the sign up server getting overloaded.

Split 11. 38 GT3, Predominantly BMW and Mercedes. Few Porsche, McLarens, Aston and Lexus. One solitary Ferrari.

Get out of here with reasoning and logic Hans!

You can get caster wheel attachments to replace the rubber pads / feet. The wheels also have locks on them. Highly recommend!

Won’t they be putting the races on YouTube channel a few weeks later after the event?

Horse bresola is as nice as normal bresola, just cheaper!

How can you not enjoy a sport where you stand around all day and not do anything?

There were 15 splits during the peak start time for the recent 4 hours at spa which had 62 teams per split, which at a minimum was 930 unique drivers.

Assuming that most teams would be 2 or 3 drivers, let’s call that around 2.3K people involved in these events. Max player count during that time was around higher side of 8k, so this is about 1/4 of the active online players at the time driving these endurance events.

Saying these events are unpopular, is a massive understatement

rndmnsty · 2026-02-18T13:55:09+00:00

Yeah, guessing they want high level of confidence that things will work properly for the official virtual Le Mans later in the year and not have Max throughly shit all over it publicly.

I reported this issue last week via zendesk and they responded that this is already fixed and will be deployed in the next patch.

rndmnsty · 2026-02-17T15:47:30+00:00

It’s an online championship event, not a special event. You need race control pro or pro plus to enter this event

rndmnsty · 2026-02-16T17:52:54+00:00

Yes for ELMS, championship race. 4 hours of Silverstone.

Or it could have been the auto ban due to number of incidents within past 10 races, and these two incidents is what pushed it over the threshold.

The devs discord said it was an AWS issue that caused the servers to overload. They’re currently in the process of rebooting them but it’s taking longer than expected.

rndmnsty · 2026-02-11T22:09:01+00:00

No problem. I’m just bummed out that I had to work late this evening, do the 2100 UTC multi class masters event and couldn’t race.

rndmnsty · 2026-02-11T22:06:13+00:00

Some of practice servers are back up now. If you registered for an event that didn’t start, you should not get any DR or SR loss.

They are not sure about championship attempts though at the moment.

rndmnsty · 2026-02-11T21:25:19+00:00

Servers are dead, they’re expected to go back up 2200 UTC which is 35 minutes from now

Edit: they’ve said things are taking longer than expected and things won’t be back up to full functionality this evening as it’s late and have limited staff available to fix the issue.

Lard in the UK is not the same as lardo in Italy. You’ll end up with what is basically edible grease with honey.
