The MSF 1.5hr Enduro is essentially a double-header format: 2 heats of 40 minutes + 1 lap race of Sepang Full Circuit, with 10 minute break in-between.
The +1 lap means that, the LAST LAP board will be shown to the leader when he passes the line after 40-minutes, so that all drivers know that it is indeed the Last Lap.

THE 10-MINUTE PITSTOP
There is no compulsory pitstop during the race heat, no driver change in each race heat: a flat-out race to the Chequered Flag!
The 10 minute break is after the chequered flag for Heat 1, to refuel the car and change driver. Any tyre change may be conducted then. Any serious WORK other than refueling, topping up fluid, and tyre change must be done inside the pits.
After 10 minutes, the 3-minute board will be shown, and then strictly after 3 minutes the Pace Car will commence the rolling start.
Any car that is late to the grid once the Pace Car has left the pitlane, will need to rejoin from the back.
DETERMINING THE WINNER
Total race time from both race Heat 1 and Heat 2 will be added up, and the final position will be based on this. Race time is calculated by the timing system, from when the start light turns Green, till your car passes the Finish line at the end of the race.
The car with the quickest combined total race time is the winner, followed the the second quickest combined total race time, and so on.
