wThe Monster Energy SMS Formula X series
So what is this?
Formula X is SMS' own open wheel formula, based on the Indy Car and Formula 1 chassis with some influence from the Red Bull X1 that Adrian Newey designed.
We will do a 1hr race with full tyre wear in these cars at a TBC track (not Monza).
When?
Saturday 7 October at 9pm UTC.
Why Formula X?
Formula X offers highly competitive and tactical racing thanks to the high downforce, which makes the car stick to the track through corners; and KERS, which deploys a charge into the engine and gives a temporary burst of power. The "should I/shouldn't I?" aspect of KERS deployment means you'll be deciding if you burn it all up in a lap to build a gap, to attack, defend, etc.
But the fuckers always spin out!
Yes, and I'm mandating traction control so they're driveable and don't spin.
Oh. Well then...
Yes.
The track will be Monza, right?
Definitely not. It'll be announced on the day. Why? So people get the equivalent amount of practice and setup time and can't hotlap beforehand. I thought about making them default setup only, but I'm not sure about gearing yet.
Fuel / Tyre: Both will be on.
Pits: You don't have to, but you'll be running a very conservative race to get to the end without changing tyres or adding more fuel to the car. Which is another way of saying "yes there will be a mandated pit stop".

This won't interfere in your plans for a GT3 championship will it?
Not one bit.
