The Generic Times wrote:Speight's to Sponsor Prospec
The New Zealand Brewery Speight's has signed a deal to become a title sponsor of the Pemberton Prospect team from 2015 onwards. While the exact details of the deal are yet to be announced, it's expected that the team will be known as Speight's Prospec Racing. What makes the deal all the more interesting however is one of F2RWRS championship leader Mitchell Macklin's personal sponsors is the Dunedin brewery which has led to speculation that the Australian may be outgoing driver Gary Cameron's replacement for the last 3 races before he drives for the new Simpson F1RWRS team in 2015. Neither Prospec or Macklin were available for comment.
Because hell, why not?

Actually, I remember Aerond saying something about anyone who participated in 2014 is eligible for a Reject License but you're gonna need to ask him about that.
That´s right; it´s any driver to have qualified for a F1RWRS race in 2013 and any driver to have entered a meeting in 2014.
It´s also a little bit more restrictive to F2 and F3RWRS drivers; - Top 10 championship finishers and race winners for F2RWRS drivers, and Top 5 championship finishers and overal weekend winners for F3RWRS drivers.

There is no truth at all in any rumours that we have changed our plans with regards to my replacement in the final 3 races of this season. We have signed a contract with Du Lei and she will be in the car, that is final. What's more, we have not made any agreements with potential sponsors at this stage although we are evaluating a number of options and would hope to make announcements fairly soon.

Can I suggest that Rejects of LFS champions are also eligible for Superlicenses. Referencing real life, Kimi Raikkonen got a superlicense despite only winning Formula Renault. Seeing as it has been partly incorporated in the RWRS structure already, this change makes sense. But only if the criteria is more restricted than F3RWRS.

It was revealed this evening by team boss Sammy Jones of Castrol Jones Racing, that Daniel Melrose would be remaining at the team for the 2015 season.
"We're absolutely delighted that we've been able to agree terms with Daniel for 2015" reported a happy Jones, "he's brought the team some excellent results this season, and we hope that will continue into next year. The deal is for just one season, and I'm sure at the right point in 2015, should both parties desire it, we'll discuss our options for the future."
When asked about plans for Jack Christopherson, Jones added,
"He'll be our first reserve driver next year and carry out the bulk of our testing programme, alongside a limited schedule for Terry Hawkin, but he also has the freedom to sign with another team to race for, though the specifics of hiring him will need to be negotiated beforehand with ourselves."

I added some more avenues for getting a Superlicense last night and doing well in the F1RLFS series is now good enough for a license. Incidentally enough, I also added the Lotus Racing League and RECCSS to the list as well.

For those who don't have the time to read through the entire regulations, here is Article 1.2.2 and 1.2.3 which concern the Reject Superlicense:
1.2.2. From 2015 onwards, Drivers must qualify for a Reject Superlicense to drive in an F1RWRS race.
1.2.3. To qualify for a Reject Superlicencse they must qualify under at least one of the following criteria: a) Have finished in the top 10 overall of any F2RWRS season OR have won an F2RWRS race; or b) Have finished in the top 5 overall of any F3RWRS season OR have won an overall round in 2014 OR have won any race from 2015 onwards; or c) Have participated in any race in the 2014 F1RWRS season; or d) Have qualified for any race in the 2013 F1RWRS season; or e) Have finished in the top 5 of any F1RWRS race in 2010-2012; or f) Have finished in the top 10 of any F1RWRS non-championship race since 2012. If a driver doesn't qualify for a Reject Superlicense through the F1RWRS and associated categories, a driver can qualify through the following criteria: g) Have qualified for and participated in at least one Formula One Grand Prix race since the year 2000 or hold a current FIA Superlicense; or h) Have finished in the top 10 overall of any IndyCar or Champ Car season since 2000 or won a race; or i) Have finished in the top 5 overall of any F1RLFS season or won an F1RLFS feature race; or j) Have finished in the top 3 overall in the Lotus Racing League; or k) Have previously won the REECCS Championship. Should a driver not meet any of these criteria, a temporary Reject Superlicense can be granted provided that the driver has proven that he or she can drive an F1RWRS at competitive speeds for an entire race weekend or the equivalent distance at the discretion of the F1RWRS Commission.
If Aerond and the F1RTA agrees with the criteria, this will be set in concrete for 2015

According to an inside source, Tropico Grand Prix powered by CR Motorsport is looking for a second reserve driver for the 2015 season. This only serves as confirmation of the rumour that Alberto Cara will be promoted to a race seat.
Two candidates are in the running - it seems like Judd McAllister is the number one option, although a few voices are rather in favour of hiring Joel Melrose for the job.
Scuderia Alitalia announces tie-up with Selenia, Lavazza
Scuderia Alitalia have secured two new sponsors for the 2015 season, motor oil supplier Selenia, and coffee maker Lavazza.
"Well, of course, we have close links to the old Minardi team of Formula One, many of our staff used to work there, so it is only natural we regain a similar reputation to Minardi when they were in Formula One - we will now have the best espresso in the paddock."
The deal marks a significant change in direction for the Italian team, which was previously blighted with problems of alcoholism, thanks almost entirely to beligierent team CEO Alasdair Lindsay. Perhaps with new team principal Andrea Sassetti at the helm, we will see a change in direction for the team which has struggled this season.
I think this fits the bill of publishing publicocrap only for the sake of publishing publicocrap quite nicely.

This is ridiculous. In a couple of years time, there would be a massive driver shortage in F1RWRS because not enough drivers are qualified to step up.

OK then. In that case, a rule will be set that those who win one of these championships can't compete again.

Tread lightly in ARWS. Every decision might be your last.
Having seen Aerond's proposed changes, and having given it some thought, I have to agree on omitting the F1/IndyCar conditions, because anyone can pick up F1 2011, put the settings on easy and cruise round and take three world championships by the age of 21 or whatever. That's not fair on members who decide to take their characters through the ranks we've established and are then elbowed out of the way by new drivers coming in using this requirement.
I find the RoLFS requirements reasonable - currently only the top four drivers there are eligible for a Superlicence (top three fills both requirements, while Hannesson in 4th also has a feature race win on his belt), and having just ran the qualifying for the last GP, I don't see that changing anytime soon. The cars I use are currently so much slower than F1RWRS or F2RWRS cars that it would be unrealistic to allow them easy access to the top level.

Not looking at you Melrose!
I actually did think consider that when I made those changes but, at the same time, I trust you people to not do stuff like that. For now, however, I will remove both from the requirements. As to the F1RLFS series, I'm leaving that as is because I consider it as an equivalent to the F3RWRS in terms of performance and driver quality BUT the Lotus Racing League criteria may be changed in the future depending on how that series pans out. If Kostas can get the Big Car Championship back up and running, rest assured that it'll be included as well.

Autosport wrote:Horizon to run MRT Indianapolis Entries
Earlier today, MRT boss Daniel Melrose has revealed that the Horizon Motorsport squad will be running the three cars for the F1RWRS Bud World 800. As the American arm of the operation, Horizon ran the IndyCar entry for Dean O'Lauchlan before his callup back to to the F1RWRS and also takes care of the running of JR Hilderbrand's car as a collaborative agreement with the Panther Racing Team. This means that the team will still participate as MRT at the World 800 with their three drivers Rhys Davies, Phillippe Nicolas and Mitchell Macklin but with a crew made up almost entirely of the Horzion squad. While Melrose himself was unavailable for comment, he did also confirm that Indianapolis 500 winner Vidal Reyna-Sanchez will be moving to the Horizon team in IndyCars next year with Hilderbrand staying put in the number 4 machine.

ARROWTECH TO SKIP INDIANAPOLIS, TO RUN IN LUXEMBOURG GP ArrowTech ART have announced that the team is to run in the Luxembourg GP, slated to run on November 30. The team, as stated in the rules, will run two cars, the first with Mirko Bosevic and Rosco Vantini (with Vantini's entry pending) and the second with Daniel Martins and Alberto Cara (also pending). The Fox said in the interview that he did not enter in Indianapolis because he believes that the race winner is cursed. Although the statement is up for debate, he said that the Luxembourg GP was a no-brainer - he said that the race has great potential to be a successful non-championship race. Prince Falik was not available to comment, nor were any of the drivers.

Of course, many of these guys won't drive in the F1RWRS next year but it's something to keep in mind. The class of graduates will, in all likelihood, be smaller for 2015, especially from the viewpoint of the F2RWRS as many of the F2RWRS and F3RWRS license holders are racing there next year.

Oh, before I forget, can Aerond please confirm or deny the following section of the rulebook?
4.3. Credit Cap
4.3.1. Each team is now capped at a maximum of 1000 credits. 4.3.2. A team may have more than 1000 credits, but this may only be spent on purchasing a new chassis and/or engine. Any further credits still left over 1000 are forfeited. 4.3.3. Should a team subsequently fall short of the budget cap at the beginning of the next season, these forfeited credits will be awarded back to them up to the credit limit for their use.
I'm pretty sure 4.3.1 and 4.3.2 are confirmed but I'm not sure about 4.3.3 which I put in there myself as I'm currently under the assumption that it is. I'll let the F1RTA get in on the act as well just for the heck of it.

OK then, with option B the obvious choice for Indy, that'll be it. Now, for performance what I'm doing is using the base stats of the cars the teams are using this year (with the exception of MRT, Donkervoort and Red Bull Jagermeister, which I'll explain soon). For the drivers, if Aerond gives me their stats, then I'll use those or roughly the same, otherwise every driver will have the same stats. The major problem with this is that GP4 can only run 2 car teams. What this means is that each team gets to run a maximum of four drivers for the race (and I'm not capping the entrants - huge grids are awesome!) So most teams will either need to sack a driver or hire another one.
And the reason those three aren't using their base stats: RBJ and Donkervoort is obvious - they don't have a car to use. For the purposes of this, can eurobrun and This please go to the chassis list and pick something that is available (and spend less than 1000 imaginary credits please!). The change with MRT is more to level the field a bit more - they are the only turbo team running, and lap ridiculously faster than everyone else. So rather than the almost 800 bhp that they have, it'll drop to just under 700 - still the most, but with Gillet, Jones and ARC not far behind.

Or, alternatively, you can bump everyone else up so they all don't get taken to the cleaners by the F2RWRS cars
And MRT will take the option to run a fourth car for Marie Simon in the Bud 800. If you look hard enough, there'll be some F2RWRS performance files lying around for you to use as a basis for the F2RWRS drivers that'll be participating (Tuned down a lot of course). Oh and I'll need to give you a new gpxset file for the F3RWRS but I'll explain all that crap later.

Erm, so what that's saying is that anyone who doesn't make the 1000 credits limit the year after smashing it to bits gets those additional credits that they originally forfeited, only a year later? Not so sure about it myself, but I'm happy to see how it turns out in practice.
