NRE will take a gamble and sign an all-Finnish lineup of Tommi Hämäläinen and Markus-Petteri Pykälistö.

Prospec are pulling out, which leaves 17 teams this season, plenty to work with.

In other news, it's time the liveries started to get made. Here's the template. As usual, if you can't make it yourself, post a description including sponsors and I'll get on it.

Just use Restov's livery from last year, with updated numbers obviously

Obolensky will have 34.

Today, Falik Arrows confirmed on Twitter that Formula 4 Sudamericana driver Haílton Fidélis. Fidelis has been racing in the series since its inception in 2014, having failed to acquire the funding necessary for a jump to bigger series. He drew public attention by having a very flamboyant driving style, once purposefully spinning out of the lead just so he could beat the competition again, which he did. His best finish in the series was third in 2015, having won seven races over his F4 career.

The funding for the RWS3 campaign comes from Best In The World, who confirmed the Brazilian to be the newest member of their support group. "His attitude to motor racing is just what our brand needs," a Best In The World spokesperson commented on the newest signing "We cannot ignore the ever-growing Brazilian and South American market, so we are very happy to have found both a talented and marketable driver there."

TMLW, here are the Nebulas. I'll update the Porto Wines and Restovs soon.

NRE liveries and very basic helmets be here. You can use the race suit from last season.

Yep, certainly

Lazy Lappy is lazy. Let's fix that! :mrgreen:

Liveries needed: Well, all of them, really. I have Nebula, NRE and ZimSport, plus I can take care of the Restov, Porto Wine and Red Bull (assuming no one else has).

Driver issues: Red Bull and Mazzacane are yet to confirm their second drivers, and there are a few that have fallen foul of the age rule (that is, their ages haven't been given yet). These drivers are:
Jayleen Mori
Andrea Bianchi
Jukka-Pekka Kankaanpaa
Naoki Shinjo
If the owners of these drivers could give me their ages, that'd be nice (I will accept links to pasta's list of drivers, but really it'll be easier if you just say it here.)

DSR: If you are sticking around, some drivers, numbers, engines and chassis would be nice as well.

I plan on starting (hopefully) in the next week or so, but I'm feeling nice so only the drivers are urgent, the liveries can wait for a while (if you're OK with plain white and the driver's name on the sidepod Hispania-style).

Don't worry about the Restovs and Porto Wines, I've renumbered them (and given the Restovs some Estonian sponsors now Vosu's on board).

You may get them here.

69 has already been taken and I need ages for Gonzales and Nikolov, but apart from that it's fine (I assume you mean DSR 317 chassis

)

Oh, I checked the wiki:

Rafa Gonzalez was born 25.11.1999 and Hristo Nikolov - 08.02.2000. If 69 is taken - then I take #66 and # 67

According to the Wiki, JM was born in 1990 which means in 2017 he will be 26 at the start of the season and 27 on the 19th of July. So just qualifies for the age limit.

Good news! I have made progress!

If you want to know how *insert driver here* retired, it was probably at Curva do Lel. Where this happened:

That was the third one :lol:

Also, I still need liveries. For a lot of teams

Bannock to leave ZombieKart
Junior bannock has today announced that he will need to take at least two months off to care for his sick grandmother back home in Jamaica.
"At this stage, it looks like she will be unwell from the start of May until mid-July, it is unfortunate but I can't control the timing on these things," he told the press reporters, before putting on a RonDen Racing Engineering baseball cap.
It is understood that F2RWRS team RonDen Racing Engineering are searching for a replacement for underperforming Josh Carlisle, and many speculate that Bannock is headed to the Belgian squad for his first start in F2RWRS.

Sammy Jones wrote:Christ almighty it's taken long enough to bloody get onto the scoreboard! I'm happy for Stan and his first points. He's a young lad and needs time to get used to the series. As for George, he's already had a year in F3RWRS and is clearly demonstrating that he doesn't need any more time. He's being outpaced by a rookie and his driving has been, to put it mildly, f***ing terrible. I'll give him his chance, but if he ends up with a ban, he'll be shown the door. I cannot tolerate such poor driving in my team.

2017 Round of the United Kingdom - Race 1
2 small changes before this round. First is that the safety car will be used for the first time, in order to reduce the number of accidents, and secondly, due to limited space in the pit lane, only 32 cars can race, so the 8 lowest drivers in the championship will have to prequalify and compete for 4 spots.
