16.24 Finishing the race in the Pitlane will result in you not classifying
17.1 Follow the rules of F1 - that's follow the pit in and out lines, no overtaking under Safety Car and no abusing of game exploits. If it's something that you don't see in real life, don't do it in the game.
Failing to do so will result in a sporting penalty decided by the FIA. (For specific circuits and circumstances there will be more clarification before the event)
17.2 Whether on the inside or outside, attacking or defending, if you see a red proximity arrow and someone is alongside you, leave them room. For the avoidance of doubt, we consider 'alongside' to be front axle to rear axle.
17.3 No dive bombing from far away. If you are nowhere near the driver ahead at the normal braking point, or even after the car ahead starts to turn in for the corner, don’t expect racing room on the inside. That’s not how you should be ahead at the apex. If the attacking car gets alongside the defending car (front to rear axle) during the entry and before the apex, while being able to slow down and take a reasonable racing line, in a fully controlled manner, they should be given racing room on the inside, only attempt a divebomb only when you can complete the move in a safe manner without contact, otherwise it's on you. if the defending car is clearly ahead when he is already turning in, and gets hit from the side then it should be the overtaking car's fault but if the defending car isn't following the racing line and turns in early to "defend" then its also moving under braking and of course its the defending cars fault
17.4 When defending a move around the outside, you should not take the outside line until the attacking car is not alongside anymore - don't run them out of the road while being alongside.
17.5 No retaliatory action. Two wrongs don't make a right - if someone has done something they shouldn't have, stay calm and report it after the race.
