2017 AutoReject 2.0 Europe - Sakhir Post-Season Test Result

Post by **Ataxia** » 10 Mar 2014, 21:48

F1RDS has a brand new name, brand new rules and a brand new car. Welcome to AutoReject 2.0 Europe, the European grass-roots single-seater competition.

What's new:

- The Winter Cup is gone, owing to the greater number of off-season series.
- New race system. There will be one qualifying session to determine the grid for the feature race, which will be approximately 85km long in distance.
- The results of the feature race will form the basis of the grid for the sprint race although with the top 10 in reverse order. The sprint race will be approximately 50km long in distance.
- The points systems for both races have been revised; the feature race will dedicate points to the top 10 as follows: 20-16-14-12-10-8-6-4-2-1, with 2 points for pole and 2 for fastest lap.
- In the sprint race, the top 8 will be allocated points as follows: 10-8-6-5-4-3-2-1, with 1 point for fastest lap.
- Greater calendar compatibility with AR3.5, formerly IFRC
- Usage of the GP3 Series 2010 chassis, to be known as the Dallara AR2/17.
- No double-dutying allowed, except in special cases.

Car Templates:

You are more than welcome to paint your team's livery, using the World Sim Team GP3 template provided below. There are two things which need to be noted regarding the main body template; firstly, any sponsor logos on the TOP RIGHT nose profile must be flipped. In addition, you must also flip any logos on the BOTTOM LEFT side of the car. Nothing else requires flipping. Example.

Or if you would prefer me (or someone else, depending on how much I have on my plate) to paint you a livery, please fill in the livery request form underneath the car links. Please make one livery per driver, and driver owners may define any personal sponsorship a driver may bring, in the name of individuality. You may make helmets and driver overalls if you like, but they are not mandatory.

NRE is confirming Kyösti Pykälistö as their #1 driver in an all-new, all-rookie lineup.

I'll whip up my own livery in the next few weeks. Biscione, does Pykälistö have any personal sponsors?

Two things:

a) We're not picking numbers; V-Sport have #11 and #12. I just needed confirmation of which driver would go in which car.
b) Jones has been signed by DMR, so you'll have to find a different partner for Taylor. Can I tempt you with Velazquez's petro-dollars?

About the numbers: alright!
About the offer: sure, those dollars are worth the seat.

Excellent; I'll work on a car over the next few weeks.

Pyotr Mikoyan is grateful for Mecha for signing him for 2017 he is sponsored by Russian watch manufacturer Raketa

Hermann95 · Post by **Hermann95** » 24 Mar 2014, 16:16

Austrian driver T.K. Wolf is looking for a seat. As RRT happens to be down he is without a seat and has no experience in any canon series. If he is accepted he would bring personal sponsorship from Raiffeisen Bank International.

Kyoko Katayama a 15 year old driver from Japan, the Youngest sister of the Katayama is open to driver offers.

Post by **Ataxia** » 23 Apr 2014, 22:39

Because I'd ideally like to start getting the bits and bobs together, it would be ideal if Tristan and TMLW thought about their driver lineups soon.

As for liveries, don't forget to post your requests. So far, I've done:

Ecurie Prenois
V-Sport
Octan
Restov

I believe Pasta's sorting the +1 and the DMR, and Nuppiz is doing his own, so there's a few more to go.

Rosenforth will run Iakopo Fuamatu and Pietronella Addiks (the Aruban from the CRL) next season, and my livery is in progress, so don't worry about that :mrgreen:

Unfortunately, Bell would be 22 when the season begins and therefore is too old for the series. You may change his age, or pick somebody else to fill the #10 car. There's a few people still free after last season's end-of-year tests.

Age changed. Somehow I read the rules as over 21 and not under 21.

Right, since Dark77 has ditched all of his teams that gives go_Rubens the chance to join the series.

@go_Rubens: If you'd like to take the final grid slot, then you need to sort the following out for me.

- Fill in the livery request template for me. Everyone from #16 and over will shift up two slots, so this gives the new team #26 and #27.
- Decide on your driver pairing. You can stick with the ones left over by Dark, but since their DECs are up for grabs their new prospective owners might wish to move them to different series. Just a heads-up, there are also a few drivers who haven't been signed after the end-of-season RDS tests, and similarly there's a few eligible drivers in FRENCH who might be worth a gamble. You can also try to snag someone from Wizzie's Caribbean thing, but since it's very much a personal "league" then they will have their performance generated as rookies. It's up to you.

go_Rubens · Post by **go_Rubens** » 20 May 2014, 20:29

I'll gladly take the final grid slot! Why not?

I'll keep the drivers Dark77 had originally and if I have to make changes, I will.

So, with that:

Team Name: Vivendi EBL
Colour Scheme: Black front wings, with white and purple stripes ala early Minardis
Main sponsor: Vivendi
First car # and personal sponsors: #26 Han Yong-Sung, no sponsors
Second car # and personal sponsors: #27 J.J. Taylor, no sponsors

Okay, that's all good...just to confirm, you want something like this, but with white and purple instead?
