Core Principle — Self-Reporting
If you cause a caution, claim it in sim chat before one-to-go. Own it, serve the EOL, take the incident point, and move on. The penalty for hiding is much worse than the penalty for owning a mistake.
Submit an Incident
Report to the IRB →
For caution-causing incidents that weren't claimed, or non-caution contact you believe was avoidable.
Disagree with a Ruling?
File an Appeal →
72 hours from ruling publication. Only the penalized driver may appeal. Decision is final.

EOL
Incident Points Ladder
PTS TRIGGER CONSEQUENCE
1 First claimed incident in a race End-of-line on next restart
2 Second claimed incident, same race Second end-of-line
3 Third claimed OR unclaimed incident the IRB rules against you Drive-through (DT). Unclaimed DTs served at next race.
4 Fourth incident point Championship points deduction (driver or team)
5 Fifth incident point Parked for remainder of race + one-race suspension. Soft reset to 2 after serving.
6 Sixth incident point Indefinite suspension pending IRB review and corrective-action interview
Intentional wrecking is escalated immediately to 6 incident points regardless of current season total. The IRB may recommend permanent removal from the league.
Season Watch List
No drivers currently carry incident points. A clean league is the goal.
Worked Examples
ExampleOutside car squeezed to the wall

Scenario: Car B has full door-to-door overlap on the outside into Turn 1. Mid-corner Car A drifts up, leaving inches against the wall. Car B brushes the wall and bounces into Car A.

Fault: Car A. Overlap was established; Car A's drift eliminated practical racing room. The fact that Car B's car contacted the wall first does not transfer fault. Car A claims and serves EOL (1 incident point).

ExampleLate dive-bomb

Scenario: Car B sticks their nose to the inside at the last moment, gaining only partial overlap after Car A has already turned in. Contact, both cars spin.

Fault: Car B. Overlap was not established before turn-in. Car A had no obligation to leave room for a car that wasn't there. Classic dive-bomb — avoidable contact.

ExampleInside dive that slides up

Scenario: Car B dives inside under braking with overlap, but enters too hot. Mid-corner Car B slides up out of the bottom groove into Car A.

Fault: Car B. Lane integrity failure. Earning overlap does not protect a driver who can't hold their car. Exception: if Car A pinched first, fault flips.
