Welcome to Qatar for the 14th Round of SLR Season 13, where we have crowned our new McKeon Division Champion this weekend in SLR Corey. Congratulations to Corey on this achievement, it has been a long time coming after joining in Season 7 and racing almost every week since joining in either F1 or F2. We also saw for the first time in a long time, 3 brand new race winners, where each race weekend saw a first time SLR race winner. Meanwhile, Mercedes are also your Joint Constructor's Champions for Season 14, so those that are currently in those seats will get their pick of car for next season. Well done to SLR Corey, SLR Jam40, BRT Haze, Pricey, BadOtterTV & legendarydannyd! There are still plenty of titles to be won however, and with all titles up for grabs next week, who is in with the best chance after the results at the Lusail International Circuit? Time to find out how things went down!

Ticket # 322 - Lap 10 incident involving BrushyPancake93
Verdict: 5s + 1LP to BrushyPancake93
Detail: Abusing ghosting - regardless that the pack is bunching up, the stewards agreed that Pancake overtaking 3 cars whilst ghosted was unsportsmanlike, and that he should have tried his best to maintain position rather than ghost through everyone.
Ticket # 323 - Qualifying incident involving GoldenEggFryer & THATGUY691244
Verdict: 2LP to THATGUY691244
Detail: Whilst this is not direct impeding from THATGUY691244, the stewards believed that THATGUY's movements were very distracting for GoldenEggFryer. It would have been safer to slow down before the corner rather than going off the racing line so late, and so a smaller penalty of just LP has been applied.
Ticket # 324 - Lap 15 incident involving BrushyPancake93 & Drastikblaze - track limit warning removal request
Verdict: No penalty to Drastikblaze, 3s removed from BrushyPancake93's race time
Detail: sufficient evidence provided from BrushyPancake93 to show that this was one of 3 warnings, and the stewards agreed that it was fair to remove this.
Ticket # 325 - Lap 1 incident involving GoldenEggFryer & Mrchris8001
Verdict: 1LP to Mrchris8001
Reason: unsafe rejoin to track. The stewards agreed that this was unsafe, regardless of whether ghosting is on or not, and it is not an excuse as that would be abusing ghosting.
Ticket # 326 - Lap 6 incident involving Mrchris8001
Verdict: 2LP to Mrchris8001
Reason: This was not an intentional crash, however the fact that this was a careless crash that could have easily been avoided which brought out a safety car, Chris has still been penalised.
Ticket # 327 - Lap 12 incident involving GoldenEggFryer & LSJ Rundle
Verdict: No further action
Reason: There isn't really anything in this incident at all; the track was under green flag conditions by the time the overtake was made by the looks of the evidence provided, and such Rundle would have received an illegal overtake countdown if it was yellow flags at the time.
OFFICIAL WARNING TO MRCHRIS8001 FOR ACCUMULATING 6LP SO FAR THIS SEASON.

Ticket # 317 - LSJ Rundle penalty removal request
Verdict: Warning not removed, therefore penalty stands.
Detail: The stewards feel that the gap round the outside closed before Rundle was entitled room and there wasn't a car's width to go for the move. Therefore, the warning is deemed to be Rundle's fault and remains.
Ticket # 318 - GoldenEggFryer penalty removal request
Verdict: 2 track limit warnings removed - 3 seconds removed from GoldenEggFryer's time
Detail: GoldenEggFryer has half of his car alongside Pricey twice going round the outside of turn 1, but gets squeezed off track twice. These warnings will be removed, although the stewards do not feel this is penalty worthy from Pricey. GoldenEggFryer's warning total goes from 6 to 4, therefore removing 1 time penalty from his time.
Ticket # 319 - Lap 25 incident involving RyanScores & UKBeastAssassin
Verdict: No further action
Detail: there is room for Ryan and Beast has the vast majority of his car ahead. As the stewards feel Beast does nothing wrong, no penalty will be given.
Ticket # 320 - Lap 1 incident involving Arb0n EPA & RyanScores
Verdict: No further action
Detail: Arbon is already massively off line and losing a lot of momentum to Ryan, who understeers slightly himself making minor contact with Arbon whilst completing an overtake. This does not affect either of their positions as Arbon was already losing the place, and the stewards feel this is not malicious in the slightest, therefore no penalty will be applied.
Ticket # 321 - Lap 20 incident involving Tornado0333 & Pricey
Verdict: 5s + 1LP to Pricey
Detail: Spinning another car. Whilst the stewards agree that the gap was there for Pricey to make the move, the stewards believe he misjudges it and causes the contact with Tornado, spinning him. Therefore, 5s will be given to Pricey.
