Daunt
MLG Pro
In the second-to-last race this season, the B2O Blancpain Series heads to the historic Suzuka Circuit. Opened in 1962, the track has played host to many events, from Grand Prix to touring cars alike. The 5.8km, 17 turn track has a few different layouts but notably, the GP circuit is by far the most oft used. The picturesque track is well-known for the spoon, 130R and the esses, all signature corners.
A car that is well balanced will probably excel the most here, as Suzuka GP features a little of everything: straight line speed, fast sweeping corners, slow tight corners, and medium speed sweeping esses. A perfect balance of downforce will be critical; too little means danger at 130R, while too much means you'll be easy pickings for faster cars on the straights.
Open Qualify Session starts at 7:30 PM EST spanning 1 hour. Participants are required to put down a reasonable time (within 3 seconds of the leader) to qualify for the Q-race. If any less than 3 laps are put down, or the driver is not within 3 seconds of the leader, he/she will be put at the back of the grid.
Qualify Race starts at 8:30 PM EST spanning 40 minutes of practice and finishing off with a 20 minute, inverse grid, Qualify Race, gridded per the open qualify session prior.
Main Race starts at approx 9:45 PM EST with 10 minutes warmup and a 50 minute Race.
Grid positions carry over from Qualify Race Results.
A mandatory Pit Stop is required within a narrow 5 minute Pit Window at the 25 - 30 minute mark to take on tires only.
