The slower vehicle is not permitted to defend its position.
The slower vehicle must allow the faster vehicle to overtake at the earliest safe opportunity.
Examples of how to facilitate an overtake include:
* Lifting off the throttle on a straight.
* Moving off the racing line to the outside.
* Using the headlights to indicate the direction in which you are moving to allow the faster car to pass.
The faster vehicle remains responsible for initiating and completing the overtaking maneuver safely for both cars.
17. Leaving the Vehicle or Server
Parking the vehicle and leaving the race, or disconnecting from the server while the event is still in progress, will result in a DNF (Did Not Finish) and therefore 0 points for that race.
