Race format

The field for Wednesday‘s Battle at Berlin will be set by qualifying and a Last Chance Race. Competitors will make two consecutive laps during qualifying, with the quickest of the two serving as the official time.

Any driver who is among the fastest 24 in qualifying will automatically lock into the 250-lap main event. The remaining cars will then compete in the Last Chance Race, with the top four finishers transferring to the main event.

Positions 29-30 are determined by the Promoter‘s Option.

The starting lineup is determined by qualifying times followed by the transfers and provisional starters. Competition cautions will occur every 50 green flag laps.
