Solo Fullspeed League 2

For the SFL2, not as much new information has been released. But what we do know is that the structure of it will be something like this:

It will be pretty similiar from the first edition which is a groupstage built up of 8 groups with 6 or 7 players in each. It will last for 6 weeks and after this period the best two players from each group will advance to the playoffs. In the playoffs, a 1vs1vs1vs1 format will be in effect.

The planned date for the finals is set to April 28th.
