    I missed the V-WTCC back in 2008 - since then, I was sad about that, and because of the series never continued.

    This time I will not. ;)

    Huge welcome of the new rulebook! ;)

    As long as you can drive safely and have control over your car, it is allowed and you are very welcome to join. :) But for the long run, I would definately recommend a wheel.

    This will be interesting. I really do love R3E, but i feel like this is putting the cart before the horse as the saying goes. No triple support, partial VR implementation, flag issues and a point penalty system that isn't fully flushed out yet. I really want to see this work, but i fear this may leave a pretty bad taste in everyones mouth at the end. Hopefully i'm wrong on this.

    We have already had many competitions in the past with prizes. Even some 'big' competitions like the Virtual DTM Championship where finalists were flown to Hockenheim to compete in a live final against real DTM drivers. As well as the KTM comp where a few lucky people were flown to Austria to drive the real car.

    This is just a new comp with the same process really.

    Kind of irrelevant since the finale wont be using any of that.

    For MP races, as per the rule book, they will be disabled til they work flawlessly.

    Section 14.1.4

    Also irrelevant. The MP races appear to have stewards that will review penalties in the races... so the software wont be the one making the final call. If someone cheats or causes a wreck, they will be penalized by the staff of the event.

    Section 17

    I'm not sure if that's a good thing. I think the 2016 season is a better representation of the current TC1 regs, this year we only have private Ladas and Citroens and only a 15 car grid.

    I am not sure if something like this exists, but the place to look would be in the Community Workshop: https://forum.sector3studios.com/index.php?forums/community-workshop.73/

    From official site, we will not add any more features before the start of the first leaderboard. I mean, it starts in a few hours :D

    Yvanne Muller, Jose Maria Lopez and Mehdi Bennani? :p

    I don't see any point in implementing this. Idea is kinda cool, but not when you have 2 manufacturers. I won't be surprised if they drop it after this season.
