The third race of the MVRC season 2018 come to a conclusion this Sunday. Once more a very tight race between the two packs consisting of the top runners and the rest of the field.

Congratulations to Variante as this means he takes the lead from CAEdevice, who seemed to have gotten too comfortable on top.

The results of the scrutineering process for Sao Paulo 2018 are out:

In addition to the violations shown in the images, Tulip racing violated 0.1 by having wrong CAD files in the high_res folder, Talno violated 0.2 by not supplying a text file. Only Mercury Motorsport received a penalty for the repeated violation of rule 1.1.

The cars entered for the third race of the season, taking place in Sao Paulo have been released:

The cars mostly look like evolutions to the cars entered in the last race. JJR’s front fenders look very interesting though. After Variante’s victory last race, it will be interesting to see how far his car has improved. He claims nothing substantial was done. So maybe CAEdevice or JJR can once more get ahead of him.

Nine teams entered for the second race of the season:

The video is not quite correct, as a late mistake with the Talno entry has been detected:

The results of the scrutineering process are out:

In addition to the violations shown in the images, Variante violated rule 4.1 by not submitting the required monitoring surface for the heat exchanger flow measurement. Vortex Racing positioned the car incorrectly. Tulip Racing did not cover the front suspension, this was due to a mistake in the submission though. The violations lead to the following warnings and penalties:

It looks like Variante has taken a few weeks thinking, resulting in huge developments. Lets see if the car performs more like expected this time. TalnoRacing and Pure Power Racing also show some interesting new details not seen so far in this competition. While most cars always had pretty open rear wheel houses, now many now also have openings in the front wheel houses.

The first race of the season has commenced. A total of eight cars raced for the first race of the season:

Congratulations to CAEdevice, who could start the new season where the last one ended…

The results of the scrutineering process are out:

Most violations lead to warnings. Tulip Racing received a penalty as some individual body parts did not form closed solids. The individual warnings issued to Vortex Racing could have stayed warnings as it is a new team but as the violations probably add a lot to the vehicle performance (a much larger rear wing!) and were so easy to spot, they in combination lead to a penalty. The penalty for Mercury Motorsport is also mostly because a high rear diffuser increases vehicle performance a lot.
