The next race in the 1955 series takes us to Reims.
Reims-Gueux was first established in 1926 on the public roads between the small French villages of Thillois and Gueux. The circuit had two very long straights between the towns, and teams strove to maximize straight-line speed of their cars; many slipstream battles ensued. Race organizers actually felled trees and demolished old houses in order to make the circuit even quicker. International racing came with the first official Formula One event occurring in 1950, the inaugural year of the Formula One world championship. The circuit layout was shortened and changed in 1952 to bypass the town.
There can be little doubt that this track will suit the cars with a high top speed and with only 2 real braking points, slipstreaming will be the name of the game.
Please try and remember that you will have to brake at least twice on each lap, and that with slipstream comes higher speeds and longer braking distances. Add into that calculation that the brake fade might occur BEFORE you have slowed your machine for the approaching corner.

Handicapping and chassis allocation.This season the 1955's will be using a token system which allows drivers to purchase any chassis of their choice for a given number of tokens as published on the
championship standings page. Drivers classed as Amateurs will be allocated an additional 10 tokens. The token allocation will not be managed in SRou this season so (unlike the 67F1 Works and 67F1 Privateer divisions) the tokens available to each driver will not appear in the championship table (when the mouse pointer is hovered over the driver's total). Rather, the available tokens will be published in the race announcement. See below.
Available Tokens:Note: These are the tokens available to each driver
before the 10 tokens are added for making the race start.
