On Track Rules

Collision:

If a driver causes a collision, depending on the severity of the accident and other factors, the driver may be given a penalty if it is needed.

If it deemed to be a racing incident, all would continue without penalty.

Overtaking:

If an overtake is deemed illegal, (off track, etc.) the driver will be instructed to give the position back or will receive a penalty.

Overtaking is permitted during a yellow flag if required, racing in yellow flag areas will be deemed dangerous and the drivers involved may be given a penalty, when the safety car enters the track, all must hold position when on track. (Not in the pits.)

Pitting:

When a car pits, it is required to take either fuel and or tires, the team makes an adjustment to something, or they can repair/replace something on the car.

1 pit stop every race is mandatory

The Car Must not exceed 50kph in the pit lane.

If an incident has occurred or it is dangerous conditions, traffic lights at the end of the pit lane will show either a green light means all clear, a yellow light, meaning stay at pitlane speed until clear of incident (this occurs when there is an accident at the end of the pitlane) and a red light means stop. If driving through a red light can result in a penalty and possible disqualification.

If an incident occurs in the pit lane, a red flag may be shown/raised, and the race/session will be suspended. (All cars will go the grid and teams will then be able to go and work on the cars.)

Any unsportsmanlike behaviour to any other teams and drivers whilst pitting may result in a penalty and a possible disqualification. (Sabotage, etc.)

The drivers’ speed can increase whilst exiting the pit lanes to gain speed throughout the race unless yellow light is on (warn drivers to be caution and try to slow down if possible).

Once the whole car is clear of the white line at the exit of the pit lane, drivers can return to racing speed and return to the race.

Safety control will be used when multiple vehicles are entering and exiting the pit lanes, so no collisions are caused.

Purposeful conduct:

If a driver or a team do something that is against code of conduct in the HFF, it may result in a DSQ from a race or the entire championship, a fine, or a point deduction.

If something on track like a purposeful collision takes place, (benefit championship or something similar, etc.) there may be a need for the Race Officials to place a Penalty.

Flags and Penalties:

In the HFF, 8 different flags are in use with different meanings:

Some flags may be held with the drivers Name, (Blue, Black, and Orange)

Failing to serve a flag or penalty:

If a driver does not serve a penalty during the race it will be added onto their final time.

However, if the driver should serve the penalty during a pitstop and does not, they can be disqualified.

If they do not follow the rules around the flag, they can get a penalty or even be disqualified.
