Hello everybody. 
I would like to know if there are any changes on starting points on acceleration, braking, handling and aerial skills
if I exit and re-enter the same league before it restarts (after immediately entering and exiting another one) 
Starting with only one strong "CD" in acceleration then I would have acceleration 66, braking 44, handling 44 and airplane 44. Thanks.

You are correct for a 22 race season with a CD the same level as the team (or a 5 star L19 in a L20 team). 

It's 3 points per race strength, 1 point per race weakness and 2 points per race for the remaining six design attributes.

Lower level CDs will yield fewer points, here is an example using a L20 team with various CDs in a 15 race season...

and that's fine.

but the question is: does anything change if I go out and come back before the start of the championship, after having signed up for another and immediately left? with a CD the same level as the team (or a 5 star L19 in a L20 team). 

I finished a championship and before the next one starts (so I always have the usual 5-star cd with force in acceleration level 19 for a team level 19) I would start with acceleration 66, braking 44, handling 44 aereo 44. Change something if I Did you go out and re-enter the same league before it re-starts? (maybe before entering another)

Yes, as I said, leaving your league, joining another and re-joining will result with a starting design as per the table. Have I not made this clear?

Hello,

I'll hijack this thread but what is the definition of the start of a league?

I plan to take a little break after this season end. If I leave after the last race and before the next race is that good enough or if the host "launch" the next season immediately after the last race ends do I credited as having raced 0 race when I come back (thus having a crap car).

Does any of this matters? I was assuming that if I race a few races in a league and leave for another league I'd get a pretty meh car even if I join before the first race.

thanks

The timing of leaving a league is kind of irrelevant, nothing appears to happen to your car design. Your team will just go into hibernation and retain all the design attributes (plus engine and parts wear) that it had the moment you left a league. The only difference is that because you're not racing your drivers and staff will not age, none of the contracts for drivers, staff or sponsors will expire and your monetary expenditure that is calculated on a race by race basis (i.e. wages) will also freeze.

So taking your team out of a league is the best thing to do if you're having an extended break. If you don't do this then the next time you log in after a long break you may find your drivers and staff have all been replaced by half star people and you've gone bankrupt. The higher the tier you are in the worse will be the consequences.

Cars are reset when you join a league. The best time to join is during the break between seasons because this will result in a competitive car. The definition of joining in the break is after the last race of the season completes and before the first race of the next season locks for qualifying. Note: If you have raced in another league within the previous 24 hours you will not compete in the first race of your new league because you are only permitted to compete in one league race in each 24 hour period.

Joining part way through a season you will have a poor design for that season (needs some careful planning to avoid relegation) but there is a bug which will give you an overpowered car the following season. Most hosts will insist you reset an overpowered car or you face being kicked from a league.

Thanks a lot that is exactly what I was wondering. 
I've been playing nonstop for over a year. So a few months break over the summer is the plan.

I guess the ony issue left is whether or not the league will be full when I come back. Worth a try vs getting bankrupted and losing all drivers and staff  :)

Also thanks for answering many of my questions over the last year Kevin, appreciated.

Keep up the good work!
