to how the Series is perceived – both internally and by the general public – and
to the atmosphere in the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup through their conduct and
their communication.

the driver/entrant has to specify in which classification (A or B-classification)
the driver wishes to participate.
Part 1 | Sporting Rules Part 1 | Sporting Rules
1918
Regulations PMSC 2016
A-classification
The A-classification is a classification for drivers with a professional racing
background. The A-classification is the championship classification of the
Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup.
B-classification
The B-classification is a separate classification for drivers without a professional
motor racing background. The minimum age to compete in the B-classification
is 35 years (including the year the driver turns 35). Participation is by classi-
fication/approval of the Series organiser based on their sporting résumé.
For the classification to be contested, a minimum of 5 drivers and maximum
8 drivers must compete. Points are awarded following the same system as
the A-classification. The Series organiser has the final say in the allocation of
drivers to the respective classes.

of the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup 2016 must also be made for at least one
driver. A change in the classifications afterwards is not possible.
Porsche Junior
Per race team, irrespective of the amount of applicants and corresponding
licences, only one Junior can be registered as a driver. A Porsche Junior is
a driver nominated and supported by Porsche AG and who has successfully
completed the Porsche AG selection courses. The Porsche Juniors for the
2016 season of the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup are Sven Müller, Matteo
Cairoli and Mathieu Jaminet. Only Porsche Juniors are allowed to use the

starting number can apply for participation in single race events by the
entry closing date of the relevant event (as stipulated in the Supplementary
Event Regulations) using an “Application for Guest Entry” which must be
sent to the Series organiser.

licence grade C) who are registered for an event using an “Application for Guest
Entry” and participate with an entered vehicle under an entered starting number.
Guest drivers can apply for participation in single race events at the latest 4
weeks prior to the relevant event using an “Application for Guest Entry” which
must be sent to the Series organiser. The single entry fee is due as indicated
in the “Application for Guest Entry“. The Series organiser reserves the right
to accept “Applications for Registration” that arrive after this date.
Guest drivers are drivers with a valid international driver’s licence (at least
licence grade C) who are registered using an „Application for Guest Entry” and
participate with a vehicle not entered/without an existing starting number.
The Series organiser may allow substitute drivers as well as guest drivers
to participate in the relevant events providing that these drivers satisfy the
conditions pertaining to the rules of participation for the respective classification
rounds. Registered entrants and drivers are given priority with regard to their
entitlement to race.
Participants who have been accepted will receive a written confirmation of
their entry or guest entry. The Series organiser reserves the right to refuse
“Applications for Entry“ or “Applications for Guest Entry” at his own discretion
by giving reasons. There is no automatic entitlement to the acceptance/
participation in the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup.
The Series organiser reserves the right to enter vehicles under its own
application.
With the submission of the “Application for Entry” or the “Application for Guest
Entry”, entrants and drivers charge and authorise the Series organiser to submit
entry forms on their behalf for those events which form part of the races for
the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup 2016 (block entry). Direct nominations to the
promoters by the participants shall not be permissible.

Two starts at the same event are permissible. Recourse to legal action

the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup 2016 without exception.

of the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup 2016. If an entrant or driver fails or is unable
to fulfil the participation commitments for reasons beyond his/her control, he/
she has to state credible reasons for this in writing without measurable delay.
Any failure to submit reasons may automatically be deemed a contravention
of these regulations. The Stewards shall decide whether or not the responsibility
lies with the entrant/driver for not complying with the obligation to participate.

2014 and 2013 including the required modifications in accordance with the
attachments (see part 2: Technical Regulations, Art. 2 as well as Attachment 1)
are eligible to participate.
The vehicles must meet the technical specifications of these rules and Appendix
J of the International Sporting Code in full and must possess a valid registered
DMSB vehicle pass or the corresponding document of another ASN associated
to the FIA.
A change of vehicles has to be applied for by the entrant and to be approved
in written form by the Series organiser prior to the change.
Vehicles submitted by “Porsche AG” may deviate from the Technical Regulations
for the purposes of development. The deviations shall be referred for approval
to the DMSB by the Series organiser before the vehicle is used and shall not
involve any safety-critical modifications.
The max. number of permitted vehicles is defined in the circuit licence and listed
in the Supplementary Event Regulations of the event. Moreover, the Series
organiser limits the maximum number of permitted vehicles for permanently
entered starters to 28. In events for which the circuit licence permits a higher
number of starters than 28, the Series organiser limits the maximum number
of permitted vehicles to 32. Entries by the Series organiser are excluded from
the limit on the maximum permitted number of vehicles (32).
7.3 Running of the eventsMaximum speed in the pit lane
The maximum speed in the pit lane during training, qualifying and classif-
ication round is specified by the promoter in the Supplementary Regulations
and monitored by the Race Director and the Stewards. Drivers exceeding
the permitted maximum speed during free practice and in qualifying sessions
shall be fined EUR 25.00 for each km/h over the specified limit.
Part 1 | Sporting Rules Part 1 | Sporting Rules
3130
Regulations PMSC 2016
The penalty has to be paid to the national ASN. Drivers who repeatedly exceed
the permitted maximum speed in the pit lane during free practice and qualifying
may face additional penalties for speed limit violation. If the permitted maximum
speed in the pit lane is exceeded during the race, ‘Drive-Through’ penalties
will be imposed.
a) Practice
One free practice session of 30 to 45 minutes and one timed practice session
(qualification) of 30 minutes are scheduled for each event.
If more entered/nominated drivers are present for an individual race event
than permitted in the Supplementary Regulations for the respective event, the
Series organiser may determine a regulative procedure (via bulletin) which
decides on admission to free practice and qualifying for the race/races of the
corresponding event.
The pre-start for free practice is regulated as follows: The order of the vehicles
in the pre-start is determined by the result of the preceding race.
For the first pre-start of the season, the order of the vehicles will be determined
by a draw. Guest entrants are placed at the back.
The free practice session time duration may be reduced in length should it
be temporarily stopped for reasons of safety or Force Majeure.
b) Qualification
Qualifying will take place before every race. This consists of one section.
The duration of the qualifying section will be announced within the timetable
of the respective event. All participants must qualify for the respective race.
Admission to the starting grid and the races is dependent on the result
of the qualifying session.
The order of the vehicles in the pre-start for qualification is defined by the
results of the free practice session of the respective event. Should unforseen
circumstances force the cancellation of the free practice session, the order
of the vehicles for qualification will be defined by the results of the preceding
race (for the first pre-start of the season, the order of the vehicles will
be determined by a draw. Guest entrants are placed at the back).
At the end of the qualification, all vehicles which participated in the qualification
are subject to the Parc Fermé rules.
A driver can only be admitted to a race by participating in the qualifying session
and achieving a qualifying time not exceeding 107% of the fastest driver in
the qualifying session. This rule is applied to the totality of drivers, irrespective
of the stated classification.
Admission of drivers who have not qualified will be decided by the Stewards
in consultation with the Race Director and the clerk of the course after a written
application by the entrant/driver.
Only one qualifying session of 30 minutes will take place at events with 2 races.
The participants qualify for race 1 with their fastest lap in qualifying and for
race 2 with the second fastest lap in qualifying of the respective event.
Drivers who do not achieve this qualification may be excluded from starting.
The final decision in this respect will be taken by the Stewards in consultation
with the Race Director.
Should unforseen circumstances force the cancellation of the qualification
session, then the times set in the free practice session will be used to determine
the starting grid. The best free practice time determines the position on the
starting grid for race 1, while the second-best free practice time of the driver
in question determines the position on the starting grid for race 2.
Should unforseen circumstances force the cancellation of both the free practice
session and the qualification session, then the current championship positions
will be used to determine the starting grid for the race (both races where two
races are held at an event).
Part 1 | Sporting Rules Part 1 | Sporting Rules
3332
Regulations PMSC 2016
Starting grid
The starting grid for the race will be determined by the fastest times achieved
in qualifying. The fastest lap times of each driver will be published after
the qualifying. Pole Position will be held by the driver with the fastest lap time
according to the definition of the FIA track license or DMSB track license.
The driver with the second fastest time takes position two etc.
In events with 2 races, the best qualifying time determines the position on
the starting grid for race 1, while the second-best qualifying time of the driver
in question determines the position on the starting grid for race 2. Should
unforseen circumstances force the cancellation of the 1st race then the
2nd race will be run with the grid times set for race 2.
If one or more than one driver has not set a lap time, these drivers will
be placed at the end of the starting grid in the following order:
a) the drivers who have started a timed lap;
b) the drivers who have not started a timed lap from the pit lane.
Drivers whose lap times were cancelled by decision of the Race Director or
the Stewards must in all cases start the race behind the aforementioned drivers
at the end of the starting grid.
The competition vehicles drive directly onto the starting grid. Driving one or
more laps and through the pit lane are not permitted unless specifically ordered
by the Race Director. The order of the vehicles in the pre-start is determined
by the result of the starting grid for the relevant classification round of the
relevant event.
On display of the 3-minute signal at the latest, all competition vehicles must
be standing on their wheels and must not be lifted again.
c) Starting modes
The races will be started as follows:
Standing start with staggered formation (GP start)
d) Races
The Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup 2016 consists of 10 races organised as circuit
races. The races will run over the distance of approx. 70 km. In each case
this distance is converted into a certain number of laps for the classification
round(s) and indicated for each event in the Supplementary Event Regulations.
If the planned distance for the race has not been completed by the leading
driver after 30 minutes, the leading driver will receive the chequered flag
the next time he/she passes the finishing line.
The finish line applies both to the track and to the pit lane.
If a race is cancelled on account of force majeure or for safety reasons, the
Series organiser reserves the right to reduce the number of races or to
designate a replacement event. The Series organiser is under no obligation
to reschedule a race in its original format within an event.
Pre-start
The pre-start is the line-up of all vehicles before entering the circuit for the free
practice, qualifying and races. All vehicles must be driven from the team
awning/pit to the official pre-start by the relevant driver. Possible exceptions
will be notified by the Series organiser at the start of an event in each case.
All drivers must be ready for collection in full racing clothing in their team awning/
pit at the time defined in the schedule. Should a participant not be ready in
time he/she has no right to take part in the relevant session. The final decision
on participation in the session is taken by the Stewards.

8. Classification
8.1 Points scale
The winner of a race is the participant who has driven the specified distance
with his/her vehicle within the shortest time, taking account of all penalties.
The winner of a race with regard to the awarding of points is the entered
participant driving an entered vehicle/on an entered starting number who
has driven the scheduled distance with his/her vehicle in the shortest time,
taking account of all penalties.
All participants who started the race will be classified in accordance with
the number of laps of the circuit covered, providing that they have completed
at least 75 % of the distance covered by the winner. Drivers who have
completed the same number of laps will be classified in the order in which
they last crossed the finishing line.
If the distance is shortened or stopped and not resumed, the participants will be
awarded the points as indicated, providing that at the time the race is stopped
the leader has covered the following distance:
At least 75 % of the scheduled distance* = 100 % points
At least 50 % of the scheduled distance* = 50 % points
Less than 50 % of the scheduled distance* = No points
The distance is the number of laps specified in the Supplementary Event
Regulations for the race(s). No additional laps are added to the race distance
in the event that the Safety Car is used at any time in a race.
All laps of the race circuit covered after starting the race will be counted
to obtain the distance covered. The warm-up and slowdown laps do not
count towards the distance.
Participation of guest drivers under the entry “Porsche AG“ will take place
outside the driver, team and prize money classification.
Awarding of points
Participants who satisfy the conditions for the allocation of points for their
successes achieved in the driver (A and B-classification) and/or team ranking
for the individual classification rounds shall be awarded the following points in
the order in which they are placed in accordance with the rules for the driver
(A and B-classification) and/or team classification.
1st place: 20 points
2nd place: 18 points
3rd place: 16 points
4th place: 14 points
5th place: 12 points
6th place: 10 points

Driver classification, A and B-classifications
All results of the individual races will be taken into consideration for the
classification established at the end of the year. A separation between A
and B-classification is made. There are no void results. The winner of each
classification is the entered driver with the highest total score of all races.
The winner of the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup 2016 is the entered driver with
the highest total number of points in the A-classification from all the races.
Part 1 | Sporting Rules Part 1 | Sporting Rules
3736
Regulations PMSC 2016
The driver named in the entry must take part in at least 6 races in order
to be included in the final classification for the year.
Substitute drivers will be awarded points according to their result.
Guest drivers take part outside the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup driver classifi-
cation. With regard to the allocation of points to drivers for ranking purposes,
a change of team and a change of vehicle are possible, provided that the
vehicles involved have been entered. If a change to a vehicle that has not
been previously entered takes place, the relevant entry fees shall be due.
Team classification
The team classification is independent of the driver classification. The points
of two vehicles entered under the same licence of an entrant are added together
for the team ranking. Points are awarded for the team classification after
the official overall race result (A and B-classification).
Where there are more than 2 vehicles per entrant licence, the team shall nomi-
nate the two eligible team scoring drivers for the corresponding event in writing
before the end of the administrative checks at each event of the Porsche Mobil 1
Supercup. Should two drivers not be nominated, then the two team scoring
drivers with the lower two starting numbers of vehicles will be named for that
event. Any other vehicles of an entrant will not be considered in the team
classification. The following positions move up in the awarding of points. Team
ranking points are awarded according to the same points system as used for
the driver ranking. A driver change on a registered starting number is possible.
If a substitute driver takes part in a vehicle registered in the Porsche Mobil 1
Supercup 2016, the entrant will receive the points in the team classification
achieved in accordance with the result in the race.
Results that guest drivers achieve in vehicles not registered in the Porsche
Mobil 1 Supercup will not be included in the team classification of the Porsche
Mobil 1 Supercup. Drivers classified behind guest drivers move up the points
system accordingly.
Team ranking points are awarded according to the same points system as used
for the driver ranking.
Rookie classification
The Rookie classification is independent of the driver and team rankings.
A rookie is a driver contesting his/her first season in the Porsche Mobil 1
Supercup and who has participated in no more than 5 races of the Porsche
Mobil 1 Supercup in previous years and who is entered in the A-classification.
Drivers who take part in at least 6 events per season will be classified.
The maximum age for participation in the Rookie classification is 25 years
(counting the year the driver turns 25). All results count towards the final Rookie
classification. The winner of the Rookie classification is the driver with the
highest total number of points of all races. The awarding of points will be
the same as the points system of the driver ranking. There are no void results.
The Rookie classification is based on the overall A-classification.
Prize for fastest race laps
The driver who has achieved the most fastest race laps in all races will win
this classification. When the number obtained is equal, the decision is made
on the basis of the best placings.
8.2 Equality of pointsWhere an equal number of points are obtained by more than one driver,
the decision is made on the basis of the highest number of first places,
then second places and finally the places achieved in all races of the Porsche
Mobil 1 Supercup 2016. If, after this rule has been applied, the number of
points is still equal, the decision is made on the basis of the better result in
the final race.

events of the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup will be awarded the title:
“Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup 2016 Champion“
18.2 Prize money and trophiesPrize money
The prize money is paid by the organiser exclusively to the applicants/
participants (teams).
The prize money is paid in return as a consideration by the organiser to
the applicants/participants for their successful participation. Thus, an
exchange of supply and consideration takes place between the organiser
and the applicant/participant.
The prize money is paid plus VAT if VAT should arise according to the
applicable VAT Law. In order to check if VAT is to be charged as per the
applicable VAT Law, the applicants/participants confirm their status as
entrepreneurs for VAT purposes by indicating their tax number, resp.
VAT identification number.
The organizer issues self-billed invoices, plus VAT if applicable, for the
successful participation of the applicant/participant.
Prize money is paid out per championship race from positions 1 to 15
(A-classification) and from positions 1 to 5 (B-classification) of each official
race result.
Substitute drivers using a starting number entered in the Porsche Mobil 1
Supercup 2016 are entitled to receive prize money.
Vehicles/registered starting numbers in the A and B-classifications that have
not taken part in all championship races, are not eligible for prize money.
Excluded from the prize money are drivers racing under the “Porsche AG”
entry. Drivers placed after such guest drivers move up the prize money
system accordingly.
The prize money will be paid 6 weeks after the last race. In each case, the prize
money will be paid to the entrant named in the entry, provided that the entrant/
Part 1 | Sporting Rules Part 1 | Sporting Rules
4746
Regulations PMSC 2016
driver does not owe outstanding amounts to Porsche AG and its subsidiaries, all
entry conditions and conditions of participation have been adhered to and no
sports disciplinary proceedings are outstanding that could influence the final tally
of points.
Prizes in kind
The organiser can also remunerate the drivers with a prize in kind for their
successful participation.
The prize in kind in its net amount (exclusive of VAT) is the consideration
remunerated by the organiser in return for the successful participation of the
driver with the highest number of classification points (barter transaction
according to Sec. 3 Para. 12 sentence 2 German VAT Law). Thus, an exchange
of supply and consideration takes place between the organiser and the driver.
The driver has to indicate if he acts as a non-entrepreneur or an entrepreneur
for VAT purposes. If he acts as an entrepreneur for VAT purposes, he must
indicate his tax number or VAT identification number.
The organiser issues invoices for the supplied prizes in kind plus VAT, if
applicable. In return, the organiser issues self-billed invoices to the drivers
for their successful participation, plus VAT if applicable.
Any applicable VAT shown on the invoices of the organiser for the prizes in kind
must bei paid by the driver to the organiser. Only if for the supplied service of
the driver also German VAT becomes due and is credited in the self-billed invoice
of the organiser, no payment of the VAT element is due.
According to § 50a EStG, entrants, who are not registered in Germany, must
currently pay 15.825% of the prize money, also team prize money & special
prizes, won in German events to the German tax office. The prize money to be
paid out will therefore be reduced by this tax amount and currently amounts
to 84.175% of the prize money.
This procedure will also be applied for the prize of kind. As such, for points scored
in German races, the winner will have to pay tax based on the value of the prize.

Participants who satisfy the conditions for claiming their successes in the prize
money classification for each race are awarded the following prize money in the
order in which they are placed, in compliance with the Regulations for prize
money classification:

19. Advertising
Teams must not enter into partnerships with companies who are either
in competition to the official Series partners of Porsche AG or who are involved
in a legal dispute with Porsche AG or a company associated with Porsche AG.
The teams are therefore obliged to notify potential partnerships to Porsche AG
in advance. Porsche AG is entitled to prohibit teams from entering into a
partnership if the potential partner falls into one of the above two categories.
The use of advertisements for companies, their products, services or brands
that are competitor products, services or brands of Porsche AG, their associated
companies or Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup Series sponsors on vehicles, helmets,
race suits and other driver equipment, on team vehicles or on team clothing
or any other kind of advertising for these companies, products or services is
strictly prohibited.
The use of advertisements for companies in the tobacco and sex industry, their
products or services, or political or religious advertising as well as advertising
for private betting and gambling operators on vehicles, helmets, race suits and
other driver equipment, on team vehicles or on team clothing or any other kind
of advertising for these companies, products or services is strictly prohibited.
The advertising guidelines of the FIA and DMSB as well as general or legally
regulated advertising bans must be observed.
The team (entrant) is obliged to notify all potential partners/sponsors to
Porsche AG and obtain a written approval. Porsche AG is entitled to prohibit
teams from entering into a partnership.
In the event of contravention of this, this will result in non-admission for starting
or exclusion from the classification by the Stewards.
A team partner/sponsor must not support more than 2 teams with 2 vehicles
in each case and must therefore be included in the decals of max. 4 vehicles.

See Attachment 2.
Any violation of this regulation shall be subject to a sports penalty of EUR
1,000.00 to be paid to the relevant ASN. The payment of the penalty does not
preclude any further penalty. In the event of a repeat violation, this will result in
non-admission for starting or exclusion from the classification by the Stewards.
19.2 Advertising and starting numbers on the vehicle (see part 2: Technical Regulations Article 1.10)The registered entrants will be informed of their starting numbers before
the first race. The starting numbers remain the same for all races.

1.5 General RegulationsPermitted modifications and installations
The only work which is allowed to be carried out on the vehicles is that
necessary for its normal servicing, or for the replacement of parts worn
through use or accident.
The limits of the modifications and installations allowed are specified
hereinafter. Any part worn through use or accident may only be replaced by
identical Porsche Genuine Parts that are assigned to the eligible vehicles in
compliance with Item 2.1. The Porsche Genuine Parts are specified in the
valid spare parts catalogue in each case.
The use of components manufactured by Porsche AG for other groups of
vehicles (e.g. Porsche road vehicles) is also prohibited.
Throughout the vehicle, the standard fastening components such as nuts,

allowed to be replaced by Porsche Genuine Parts.
The service and replacement intervals and adjustment values specified by
Porsche AG (see Technical Manual) are to be observed.
The Series organiser may allow modifications that do not correspond to
the series production status on all or individual vehicles, providing these do
not permit a competitive advantage (e.g. for the attachment of cameras).
1.6 Minimum weights and ballastAt no time during an event is the weight of a vehicle allowed to be less than
the mandatory minimum weight.
The minimum weight of the vehicle including the driver weight and the residual
amount of fuel is 1,305 kg.
The minimum weight must also be observed when the levels of operating liquids
are under minimum level.
The Technical Scrutineers specify a weigh scale for the checking of
the minimum weight. It is referred to here as the “official scale”.
The official scale is located in the technical scrutineering tent or in a
respective pit. This is also the weighing area.
The installation of ballast is permitted. Only original Porsche ballast components
must be used. These must be installed in the provided holders at the position
of the passenger’s seat in accordance with the illustration in Attachment 4. The
components of the ballast weights are identified by spare part numbers (part
numbers. 997.504.848.00 / 997.504.848.01 / 997.504.848.02).
Minimum vehicle weight
The minimum weight of the vehicles is 1,225 kg and consists of:
– the weight of the vehicle;
– the weight of the inboard camera including the radio system assigned by
the Series organiser or the weight of the respective substitute ballast;
– the installed additional weights.
Minimum driver weight
The minimum weight of the driver is 80 kg and consists of:
– the driver;
– the personal equipment of the driver as it is in the vehicle at the time when
the weighing is ordered;
– the driver equalisation weight if applicable.
It is the driver’s responsibility to ensure that the sum of the installed
equalisation weight plus his/her actual weight (including the parts of his/
her personal equipment in the vehicle at the time of the order to weigh
the vehicle) is at least 80 kg.
6362
Regulations PMSC 2016 Part 2 | Technical Regulations Part 2 | Technical Regulations
Separate/combined weighing of vehicle and driver
The Technical Scrutineers may decide to weigh the vehicle and driver separately
or in combination.
If the vehicle and the driver are weighed in combination, the minimum weight
shall be the particular sum total of the aforementioned minimum weights.
Weight changes during qualifying and race
During the qualifying and race, the weight of the vehicle is only allowed to be
altered by:
– Changing from slick tyres to wet tyres or vice versa;
– Consumption of consumable materials and fluids.
On the way from the circuit to the Parc Fermé and in the Parc Fermé itself,
and on the way to the postrace technical scrutineering under no circumstances
is weight allowed to be added to the vehicle or the driver.
Verification of the minimum weights by the participants on the official
scale Participants have the opportunity to check the weight of their vehicles
and drivers during the event on the official scale in agreement with the
Technical Scrutineers.
Personal protective driver equipment during weighing
During the weigh-in, each driver must wear his/her complete driver apparel
as set out in Annex L, Chapter III of the ISC, plus the mandatory head
restraint system.
Weighing of vehicles
The weighing procedure of vehicles and drivers is conducted in accordance with
the current DMSB policy for the weighing of vehicles.
The vehicles are weighed as follows:
– Weighing of vehicles is carried out regularly on the official scale
– During the free practice and qualifying, weighing can also be done on the
scale of the FIA, which is at a fixed location in the pit lane. Any differences
between these scales are taken into account by the Technical Scrutineers.
If the weighing on the FIA scale indicates that the vehicle in question might
be found underweight on the official scale, this vehicle, the driver and his/
her protective equipment must again be weighed on the official scale following
the DMSB weighing policy
– Only the result of this weighing is to be taken into consideration and is binding
– If a driver is given the signal that his/her vehicle has been selected for
weighing, he/she must take the shortest route possible to the weighing area/
FIA scale and turn off the engine
– The vehicle will be weighed together with the driver. The driver or a team
member will receive written confirmation of the measured vehicle weight.
During weighing the driver is not allowed to move in any way as to influence
the weighing result
If a vehicle cannot reach the weighing area under its own power, it must be
brought to the weighing area solely by marshals. If this is not possible, then the
Technical Scrutineers can assign other persons for this purpose.
Leaving the weighing areaWithout the consent of the Technical Scrutineers, the driver is not permitted
to leave the weighing area and the vehicle is not allowed to be removed.
Weighing after breakdown and vehicle remaining on circuit during qualifying
and race
If a vehicle breaks down during the qualifying session or the race and the
driver leaves his/her vehicle, he/she must go directly to the weighing area
to determine his/her weight.
Determining the driver weights
After free practice, qualifying and race, all drivers must go immediately and
on a direct route from the Parc Fermé to the weighing area to determine their
weight. Drivers who are approached by the TV partner for an interview may
interrupt their walk to the weighing area for the duration of the interview.
Drivers who go to the podium are allowed to be weighed on the FIA scale.
6564
Regulations PMSC 2016 Part 2 | Technical Regulations Part 2 | Technical Regulations
Any differences between the FIA scale and the official scale are taken into
account. Drivers who do not go directly to the weighing area to be weighed
will be reported to the Stewards of the Meeting. The Stewards of the
Meeting will take the final decision regarding a punishment.
The drivers will be weighed individually and will receive a weighing report on
the determined weight. Any appeal against the observed weight must be
immediately submitted to the Technical Scrutineers after receiving the report.
Determining the total weight of the driver and vehicle
The vehicle is weighed without driver during technical scrutineering. The total
weight results from the addition of driver weight and vehicle weight (including
driver equalisation weight). If during the weighing procedure the vehicle is found
to be lighter than the currently applicable minimum weight for this vehicle, the
vehicle without the driver will immediately be weighed for a second and third
time on the same scale and in the same condition. The maximum value of these
3 weigh-ins is regarded as the actual weight of the vehicle.
Replacement and loss of vehicle parts
All vehicle parts that were replaced during the free practice, qualifying session
and race must be presented to the Technical Scrutineers without request for
inspection. The parts that were removed from the vehicle will be marked by the
Technical Scrutineers if necessary and are not allowed to be modified in any way
afterwards. These parts must remain in the pit or in the technical scrutineering
tent in sight of the Technical Scrutineers or their assistants until released by
the Technical Scrutineers. These parts can be considered when determining
the weight instead of the replaced parts.
Parc Fermé rules for vehicle weighing
Vehicles that have been specified for weighing are subject to Parc Fermé
Regulations. It is forbidden to add or remove any substance to/from the vehicle
after it has been selected to be weighed. The same applies during the weighing
process and after the end of the race. Excluded are actions of the Technical
Scrutineers.
Weighing in below the minimum weight
If, during the weighing procedure, the vehicle is found to be lighter than
the currently applicable minimum weight for this vehicle, the vehicle together
with the driver will immediately be weighed for a second and a third time on
the same scales and in the same condition. The maximum value of these 3
weigh-ins is regarded as the actual weight of the vehicle.
Falling below the minimum weight during the qualifying session will be penalised
with the cancellation of the qualification times achieved by the driver concerned.
The driver is allowed, however, to take up the race from the last place on the
starting grid. Falling below the minimum weight in the race will result in exclusion
from the points classification for the race. It is the entrant’s responsibility to
ensure that the race vehicle entered by him/her can be brought directly to the
weighing area when instructed by the Stewards or the Technical Scrutineers at
any time during the event. In any case, Parc Fermé rules apply to the vehicle
from the moment of the order until the termination of the weighing process.
Moreover, Parc Fermé rules apply to the route to the weighing area and in
the weighing area itself. Only the responsible sporting marshals and their
helpers are permitted to enter the weighing area. In this area, the only activities
on the vehicle are those expressly permitted by the aforementioned persons.
If a vehicle is not presented for weighing despite a request, the Technical
Scrutineers will inform the Stewards.

Tyre damage
If marked tyres are damaged during qualifying or in the race, these can be
replaced by new ones (notification by the team manager up to a maximum
of one hour after the end of the Parc Fermé). Damaged tyres can only be
exchanged with the approval of the Technical Scrutineers and in agreement
with Michelin. In this case, marking of the tyres by the Technical Scrutineers
is necessary.
If more than one tyre needs to be replaced, the relevant vehicle/driver will start
from the last position of the starting grid. The Stewards of the Meeting will take
the final decision regarding the severity of punishment. The vehicles behind will
then be moved up. Where several vehicles have been involved in this type of tyre
change, the relevant drivers shall be lined up at the back of the starting grid in
the order of their qualifying results.
Treatment
All chemical, mechanical and thermal treatment of the tyres is prohibited. The
mechanical removal of rubber abrasion and stones is permitted. The use of
heated covers, materials or other means that change the temperature of the

b) Cockpit
Seat
The adaption of the seat by removing or adding of original Recaro seat padding
is forbidden in the areas of the seat shown in green colour on the illustration of
attachment 12. Any modification of the seat padding shown in green colour is
strictly prohibited. The use of the different sizes paddings is allowed, also in
the areas shown in green colour, as long as they are not modified. An upholstery
in the bottom part of the seat on top of the paddings shown in green (see
illustration in attachment 12), as long as the original padding is not modified
or removed.
An upholstery of the areas shown in yellow colour on the illustration of attach-
ment 12 is allowed by either using original Recaro paddings or using a
foamed seat insert, as long as the insert is made of fireproof material, colored
in black and its maximum thickness at any point does not exceed 50 mm in
size. The use or change is subject to approval by the series organisation.
The preferred supplier for padding components is the seat manufacturer
(Recaro). The original seat mounting (seat rails and bracket) must be retained
and must not be modified.
Ventilation in the passenger compartment
Only the factory-fitted ventilation pipe (NACA-intake on the front opening hood) is
permissible for cockpit ventilation. The ventilation of the windscreen must not
be affected.
For additional ventilation of the passenger compartment only the existing original
ventilation openings in the rear back windows are permissible.
The dimension of the NACA-intake port on the driver’s side is allowed to be
changed by taping.
c) Additional roof hatch accessories
The vehicle has an opening in the roof in order to make using the KED
system easier should it become necessary to rescue the driver. The roof
hatch is located directly above the driver and with the dimension of the
opening 420 x 420 mm.
The roof hatch is connected to the roof via 4 livelocks.
d) Ground clearance of vehicle
The minimum ground clearance of the ready-to-drive vehicle (with the driver in
the vehicle and slick tyres in compliance with Article 2.7, at 2.0 bar ±0.1 bar
air pressure) must not be less than the specified dimension, as measured at
the specified measuring points, at any time during the race event.
For the entire duration of the race event the ground clearance of the front axle
is to be a minimum of 78 mm and the clearance at the rear axle a minimum of
100 mm. The measuring points (see Attachment 9) at the front axle are the
mounting bolts (M12x105) of the cross member/bodywork in relation to the
reference surface and the machined rear surface in the direction of travel on
the side section of the rear axle in relation to the reference surface. The ground
clearance is allowed to be changed within the existing adjustment range.
Applicable to MY 2013 vehicles: For the purpose of setting the measuring
point on the front axle, the washer with part number 991.341.641.8A of exactly
10 mm thick must be removed at the measuring points (in accordance with
Attachment 9). The previously used bolts for securing the front axle carrier
(height measuring point) must be replaced with bolts with the part number
999.072.864.01 (M12x105). This results in the minimum ground clearance
at the front axle of 78 mm.
8988
Regulations PMSC 2016 Part 2 | Technical Regulations Part 2 | Technical Regulations
The front underbody must be cut out in the area of the height measuring points
in accordance with the picture in Attachment 10.
Measuring method
The minimum ground clearance of the ready-to-drive vehicle is checked using a
measuring plate and appropriate height gauges for the axle to be measured in
each case. The measurement is checked with the ready-to-drive vehicle incl. the
driver on board, standing on the measuring plate. If the measuring gauges can
be accessed under the measuring points described above, the requirement to
comply with the minimum height is satisfied. Any measuring tolerances will be
taken into account by the technical scrutineers. Verification of the vehicle ride
height can also be done with Porsche AG measuring wheels. The Technical
Scrutineers can also use instruments like a callipers or a depth gauge to
determine the vehicle height instead of a gauge.
Measurement location
The measurement is conducted on the measuring plate during technical
scrutineering. The measuring plate is available to the participating teams
to check the minimum ground clearance during this period after consultation
with the Technical Scrutineers. A check can also be made in the pit lane
for the duration of the qualifying session.
Failure to reach minimum height
Failure to reach the minimum height during the qualifying session will be
penalised with the cancellation of the times achieved by the driver concerned.
The driver is allowed, however, to take up the race from the last place on
the starting grid. Failure to reach the minimum height in the race will result in
exclusion from the points classification for the race.
e) Mounting for front silencers
Changes to the body to secure the front silencers (cutting insulation and rivet
bolt) are permitted under Attachment 11.
2.9 Aerodynamic devicesThe original position of the wing section is allowed to be changed within the
specified scope for adjustment.
Masking the central cooler in horizontal line to regulate the water temperature
of the engine is allowed. Masking of the side radiators for additional control of
the coolant temperature is only permitted if the centre radiator has already been
completely masked. The masking must comply with the Sticker Regulations.
One strip of transparent adhesive tape (max. 80 mm long, 20 mm wide) is
permitted as a fixing element on the headlights, the tail lights, the front wheel
covers (9915053668AG2X and 9915053658AG2X), at a 90° angle in relation
to the particular gaps that are taped over. Complete masking of the filler flap
on the wing is also approved.
Furthermore, the teams are allowed to tape over the full area of the headlight
lenses with transparent Heli tape, without thereby taping over a slot in the
bodywork.
Apart from that, taping over of slots in the bodywork and openings is not
allowed.
2.10 Electrical equipmentFrom the “pre-start“ to the end of the “Parc Fermé“ during qualifying and racing,
only the Series organiser and personnel nominated by the Series organiser
are allowed to connect laptops/computers to the vehicles. Any breach of this
regulation may result in the vehicle being excluded from qualifying or racing.

use. The driver has to be connected to the radio system during free practice,
qualifying and the race and must be able to receive instructions from the Race
Director or the Series organiser from the point of leaving the pre-start area
until the vehicle is parked in the Parc Fermé.
The choice of hardware for radio reception from the “Earplug” port to the driver
is optional, but must be checked and approved by the Technical Scrutineers.
When mounting fixed speakers in the driver’s helmet, the FIA helmet regulations
must be strictly observed. In the case of any ambiguity, the driver/ entrant
must produce proof that the components used are suitable for use in the vehicle
(fire prevention, etc.).
Modifications to the system are not permitted. Extra equipment is only allowed
to be coupled with the radio system by the Series organiser.
On written request by the entrant, the Series organiser can also release
the communication between team and driver. However, only the radio system
provided by the Series organiser with the corresponding modifications is
allowed to be used. The Series organiser has the right to listen to voice
radio communication between the team and the driver separately.
Should the radio system not be operational by the start of a session (free
practice, qualifying or race), the Race Director can bar the vehicle concerned
from participating in the session. Malfunctions or damage to the system must
be reported immediately to the technical scrutineers.
The radio system is the property of the Series organiser and has to be returned
to the organiser in proper order after the last race of the season.
The use of other radio-based information transmission in the vehicle (e. g.
telemetry) is forbidden.
Data recording

occur with regard to interpretation of the rules, the Series organiser shall decide
according to the “essential purpose of the rules”. Moreover, the DMSB sports
disciplinary bodies also have jurisdiction in such matters. The Series organiser
reserves the right to amend and extend these rules (in consultation with the
DMSB).
Special regulations for races lasting more than one hour (long-distance races, not
Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup events)
For races which last for over an hour, there are no specifications regarding
the following points, thus deviating from these technical rules:
Chassis
There are no specifications regarding the choice of chassis springs and shock
absorbers. A spacer ring is allowed to be installed between the bodywork
and the support bearing.
Brakes
As set out in Appendix J of the FIA documentation, there are no specific
regulations regarding brake pads and brake callipers.
Tyres
The limitations set out in Art. 2.7 (Wheels and tyres) do not apply.
Different regulations are to be defined by the Series organiser, if required.

advertising on the vehicle for companies and products that are in competition
to Porsche AG or its Series and cooperation partners.
With regards to the exclusivity of the Series and cooperation partners of
Porsche AG the following rules apply (the exclusivity rule refers either to
the industry sector or to the defi ned product range of the company):
1. Mobil 1 is the exclusive partner for the product area "Lubricant".
The teams are therefore prohibited from communicating advertising for
companies and products that are in competition with Mobil 1 lubricants.
2. For the product area “Fuel”, teams are allowed to advertise for other
companies only under the following conditions and after submitting
a written request to Porsche AG:
– The product brand “Fuel” must be clearly distinguishable from the
group brand. Only the product brand “Fuel” is allowed to be communicated.
Examples: V-Power or Ultimate
– Max. one team with up to 3 vehicles is allowed to be supported for
each product brand
3. In general, the following applies: No exemption is possible for partners
of exclusivity category 1. For partners of exclusivity category 2, one release
is possible on written request per product category and per team. The
classifi cation in exclusivity 1 and 2 will be defi ned individually per partner
and is published in the separate list.
This is not valid for the ongoing season if the Series or cooperation partner
cannot be communicated by the fi rst event. The date of the contract signing
is pivotal.
The current status can be requested from the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup
organisers where necessary.
In case of questions, please contact the Porsche Motorsport Business
Relations Team, e. g. Mr. Oliver Köppen ([email protected]).
