Turn 1 Reminder
Please take it easy into Turn 1.
The opening corners at Le Sarthe can become very congested with both GT3 and LMP2 cars. Winning the race on the first lap is impossible, but losing it is very easy.
- Brake a little earlier than normal.
- Leave plenty of racing room.
- Be patient through the opening corners.
- Avoid unnecessary risks.
- Remember that a clean first lap leads to a better race for everyone.
Our goal is for every driver to make it safely through Turn 1 and enjoy the rest of the event.

Every driver is expected to:
- Race cleanly.
- Respect fellow competitors.
- Be patient.
- Drive within the limits of the car.
- Remember that everyone is here to enjoy the event.
Aggressive or intentional contact will not be tolerated.
Track Limits
Always keep at least two wheels within the white lines or kerbs where the game defines the circuit.
Repeated abuse of track limits may result in penalties from the game or race control.
Overtaking
The responsibility for making a safe overtake always lies with the overtaking driver.
When attempting a pass:
