I found its actually not too bad, now i can say thx to everyone .. check the score and end up with a 15min practice session to fiddle with the setup etc
Now if you just finished beginner race #1 and you want to switch to race#2 you'll need to wait the 10-20mins for the upcoming #1 to start, before being able to sign up for race#2 and wait another 20min for that to start, which is a lot of time thus its better to hop to Inter or Adv races.
... oh .. i just had a faint recollection that this timing issue is only applicable with SPA due to track length making the race finish too late.
I'd also like to add in the suggestion to have some sort of rotation published quarterly, or at least monthly. It's really nice for those of us with limited time to be able to plan for upcoming car/track combos that interest us and practice during the weeks that don't offer appealing combos (or combos we are not eligible for yet).

I was really looking forward to starting the championships. I knew there was one I likely couldn’t join due to its Monday/Wednesday schedule — fair enough.
But when I checked the event details, it listed the sessions as running Monday to Thursday, which gave me hope that I could take part after all.
However, when I tried to register, I saw the races are actually scheduled at 00:00 on Tuesday and Thursday, not on the listed days (Monday and Wednesday).
The same happens on the other chanpionships.
This ends up being a bit misleading — the schedule should reflect the actual calendar day on which the session takes place.
Suggestion: Please adjust the session times to match the intended days. This would help players plan better and avoid confusion. This use to be correct.

This is because the schedule follows EU timezone, and I guess you are +6 GMTI was really looking forward to starting the championships. I knew there was one I likely couldn’t join due to its Monday/Wednesday schedule — fair enough.

Did nobody think in advance to perhaps publish the schedule on Friday of Saturday? Or to prepare the schedule so all it needed was a couple of minutes out of your busy Bank Holiday morning to copy and paste into the relevent channels?
It really is a shame that the public-facing staff of this game seem so lacking in basic empathy towards their customers.

I wonder who determines the weekly races? Why is there always a fixed setup race in a game that we bought knowing that it is a simulation? Why do we race on a single track for a week in the Gold class? Why are tracks like Interlagos, Cota, Fuji not included in the weekly races? Do we have to race at Sebring and Lemans every week?

COTA and Fugi are in the weekly this week.
Interlagos is on the fix setup on intermediate, Portimão is on the open setup.
Le Man is not up for this week.
You have 11 tracks for 7 events so its normal that some of the tracks would be repeated.
The only extra layouts that are use is the Bahrain outter (its in this week) and the new track short layout the other 2 are not very usable due to the high number of cars per race. 38 cars in Sebring School is a mess as it is the Bahrain Paddock or what is call.

Thank you. Of course, we know these too. But who determines the preferred tracks in the weekly program and according to which criteria? Why aren't there more track preferences? Why do we have to race on a single track for 1 week? For example, why aren't there 3 or 4 tracks in the gold class? For example, what happens if the tracks change every 2 days? People get bored of racing on the same track for 1 week. I never prefer fixed-setup races because I find them contrary to simulation and there are many accidents. The only option left is the gold class.
