acceleration
Autocross is installed at the paddock of the Hockenheim GP racetrack. Therefore,
the track is lined with cones. Green cones are used for the track bound-
3
ary, orange cones are used for slalom and blue cones are used for entrance
and exit of the course. The track direction is clockwise. Each run comprises
15
one lap with a flying start. Two cars are on the track at the same time with
16
an offset of half a lap. Each driver can choose to drive one or two runs in a
4 5
row. The second run may be performed immediately after the first run without re-entering the queue. If the
runs are performed separately, the driver must exit the course after the first run and drive through the driver
change area slowly back to the start for the second run. The queue closes 15-30 minutes before the end of
the event, depending on the number of cars waiting.
Due to the fact that multiple cars are on the track simultaneously, a stalled car can influence the lap time of
the other car. In this case, the run for the stalled car is lost. For the other cars, a rerun of the lap is allowed.
