Then I found out I can't create wikitext to save my life

For now, here's a mock-up provisional entry list in alphabetical order. If anyone wants to put their entry on there remember to put it in the same style as before, and please put it in alphabetical order. (For example, if a team was Scuderia Toro Rosso, you would put it under T for Toro.)

I have just completed tidying it up now.

Looks awesome, thank you!

[JeremyMcClean]

Would the following teams confirm their entry for the 2015 season:
Sunshine Infiniti
Kamaha
Phoenix Racing
Dofasco
Mecha GP
ARC
Any other teams confirmed by Aerond for the season

This is for the 2015 wiki page, and for organizational purposes.

Jeremy, I'm afraid you'll need to make a choice between either Acuri or ArrowTech for next year - the new rules will mean that each member can only have 1 team for each series, and a total of 5 drivers across F1, F2 and F3RWRS.

Sunshine is being taken over by DanielPT, so that SuperAguri only controls Kamaha.

Phoenix is changing his team to Aeroracing Engineering from Team Phoenix.

ARC are still under the control of Tristan1117, and as far as I'm aware have no plans to leave.

The same for Dofasco and Mecha, under the control of The Lukas and FMecha respectively.

So assume they are all remaining in one form or another.

And thanks for the updates!

Just what is DanielPT's team named anyways?

You guys just aren't going to drop the issue are you?

I don't think you realise how strong an issue this really is. Sammy Jones and Alasdair Lindsay are in COMPLETE AGREEMENT OVER SOMETHING. I think that goes to show the strength of the argument here

Unless I have been banned for the April Fools Day thread then I think I am next in line for a F1 RWRS entry.

Aerond never said he had a problem with this so as long as he's cool with it, I'm cool with it. Besides, it doesn't matter all that much to me anyway as MRT (read: Davies' MRT) is going to blitz the field next year anyway

Because I just am. Now watch as MRT fail spectacularly fall into the clutches of Pre-Qualifying by the end of next season.

[AndreaModa]

The only reason I raised the issue was because I hadn't heard much from Jeremy about it since the limits on drivers and teams has become a proper part of the rules. Now I know he's fully aware of it as far as I'm concerned the case is closed. Jeremy does what he needs to do, another slot is opened up, more people have teams, more people contribute, everyone's happy!

And Wizzie, correct me if I'm wrong, but the last time you were so confident heading into a new season of F1RWRS, your team was saved from the embarrassment of DNQing at every race by those crappy CR Motorsport cars!

[Wizzie]

We at the MRT group try to gloss over that fact (And that entire season actually) whenever possible.

Just remember - if HRT beat MRT next year, I will kill you

GRM is the team getting the chop?! That I did not expect.

[AndreaModa]

It's effectively becoming HRT's junior team in the F2RWRS.

[the Masked Lapwing]

HRT have the history. And personal preference, honestly. And a better livery. And they aren't the ones in PQ at Zandvoort

That being said, HRT deserve to be in PQ with them

[eurobrun]

Does anyone have a copy of the current waiting list for the F1RWRS?

[Wizzie]

MRT would like to raise some potential candidates for a replacement for the F1RWRS Mediterranean Grand Prix. The candidates I propose are:

Istanbul Park - Turkey: The track proved to be a fantastic host for the F2RWRS season opener with carnage, attrition and great battles for the minor points finishes. Being a real driver's circuit helps as well

Circuit Gilles Villeneuve - Canada: As the F2RWRS showed, while retirements are usually few and far between, the quality of the racing is just superb with passes happening all around the circuit throughout the field. Add the festival atmosphere Canadian events always bring and you're in for one hell of a weekend

[JeremyMcClean]

ArrowTech agrees with MRT's idea of holding a race in Montreal, but if that does not come into fruition, we suggest the Circuito de Jerez.

The Jerez F2RWRS wasn't that great, actually. Defiantly not the worse race I've ever seen but nowhere near the best either.

[AdrianSutil]

Mr.Alexander supports to proposed offer to hold a F2RWRS event at Montreal.

You mean an F1RWRS event, right?

The F2RWRS alternates between Montreal and Road America each year as the build-up event to the Fedex 100.

Mr.Alexander has been drinking for the last 3 hours. Mr.Alexander knew what he meant

Mr Melrose highly recommends that people shouldn't have drinking contests with Mr Lindsay before F1RTA meetings. Not only will you lose comprehensively but you'll make yourself look like a downright fool in the process

[AndreaModa]

I'd be happy with either to be honest!

[Klon]

Istanbul Park - Turkey: The track proved to be a fantastic host for the F2RWRS season opener with carnage, attrition and great battles for the minor points finishes. Being a real driver's circuit helps as well

(Both in and out of character:) NO! Turkey is bland, boring and forgettable. It'd be a waste of a slot that could be given to a track which is more entertaining and has better marketing value.

Circuit Gilles Villeneuve - Canada: As the F2RWRS showed, while retirements are usually few and far between, the quality of the racing is just superb with passes happening all around the circuit throughout the field. Add the festival atmosphere Canadian events always bring and you're in for one hell of a weekend

Whilst Tropico Grand Prix powered by CR Motorsport is sure Mr. Melrose only proposes this track because he's the Kanada-King, we won't disagree with that selection should the F1RWRS Council add the track to the calender

[dr-baker]

Is the 37.73-mile Manx Mountain course available as a viable alternative?

[Klon]

Is the 37.73-mile Manx Mountain course available as a viable alternative?

No, since GP2 only allows a certain amount of track data, most circuits can't be longer than 8 km - the Nordschleife I will be using to do that non-championship race will be a shortened version and I will use a special carset to allow remotely realistic lap times.
