    We run a league, and for the last few weeks (probably since the 13 November 2025 patch), we are unable to do any qualifying sessions. Practice works as normal, and qualifying shows up as the next session, 5 minutes in our case. Practice ends, and we're placed in the warmup session after qualifying.

    We've tried:
    Changing between standing start and rolling start qualifying.
    Using the "proceed to next session" button on the server setup page.
    Using different time of day and cloud options.
    Using different tracks.​

    Is anybody else seeing this? I've attached our server backup file for in case that's relevant. [removed after solution was found]

    Nobody else reporting this issue? Is this the wrong subsection of the forum for it?

    Temporary workaround - set the practice session to 0 minutes, and make the qualifying session long enough to double as a practice session. Less than ideal, we prefer very short (5 minute) qualifying sessions. I see lots of other servers are using this format at the moment. We'll test it in our league race tonight and I'll report back if it works.

    It's the right section, but I guess there's no one here who knows the answer.

    Do you have probebly a start grid imported from another race and forgot to delete that?
    You can find it at the bottom of your setting of that server.
    This happens once to me

    You've solved it. There was an empty entry under grid positions. The empty entry needs to be deleted so there are no entries. Thanks! Hopefully this helps someone else out.
