Series Info + a Series becoming Unofficial (02:11)
Get all of the series’ specific regulations such as minimum and maximum safety rating, incident limit, and caution type. It also has an important value: the minimum amount of starting drivers. On iRacing, series are official as long as there are more people than the minimum amount of starters. If there are less people signed up than the minimum amount of starters, then iRating is not affected by the results of that session as the session is unofficial.
Series Results (02:31)
View results from all sessions completed. You do not need to have ran an iRacing official session to view its results. This comes in handy when looking at average strength of fields (competition), as higher strength of fields allow for more iRating gains for the same finish position compared to a lower strength of field race session.
