When changing weather and lighting conditions are an essential part of motorsport for you! Then you are exactly right here! Also in 2020 the rFactor 2 division of VR will organize the long distance championship - we are entering the 2nd season. The three car classes will also remain the same as in the previous season after a longer evaluation - so there will again be LMP2, GTE and GT3 to choose from. Concerning race distance and time multiplier, we decided to set a maximum race distance of 3 hours and to use different time multipliers to make more use of the light change of the rF2 engine.
