Protests from Round 2 (Interlagos)

1) FRANCESCO protesting SHAIKLY

Please refer to Protest #3.

2) LILLO protesting ATTARD

Lillo states that after he managed to get along side Attard, Attard opts to block him by slamming his car into him.

The stewards wanted to state that they personally don’t feel that Attard has indeed tried to block by slamming his car into Lillo. Attards car slowly moves to the right whilst Lillo drifts to the left as that’s the way the corner goes. We are going to deem this as an unfortunate racing incident.

3) KARLSSON protesting SHAIKLY

In reference to protest #1, another driver personally felt that a track re-entry that Shaikly performs is dangerous and caused a huge crash.

The stewards are 100% in agreement with this and have given Shaikly a reprimand. You really have to bide your time when joining the track.

4) KING protesting ATTARD

King believes that after successfully passing Attard, contact is made at the rear after Attard drives into the back of King.

The stewards agree with this protest and Attard received a reprimand.

5) KING protesting ATTARD

Unfortunately either inaccurate information supplied (or therefore lack of) for this particular protest. Please note that going forward, we need more specific information such as Replay Time Stamps.

6) KING protesting BEAVIS

Unfortunately either inaccurate information supplied (or therefore lack of) for this particular protest. Please note that going forward, we need more specific information such as Replay Time Stamps.

7) KING protesting ATTARD

King believes that Attard has focused too much on the Apex and without correct use of his spacial awareness, has caused contact between the two cars.

The stewards agree with this. ATTARD receives a pit lane start for RACE 1 of ROUND 3 (Mills Metro Park) ATTARD can partake in Qualifying however must remain in the GARAGE until the timer runs out. ATTARD can then exit and join the queue in the pit lane.

8) KING protesting FRANCESCO

King believes that despite leaving all the room he could have left, Francesco has still drifted wide and forced King off the track.

The stewards are in agreement with this and Francesco receives a reprimand.

FINAL STEWARD NOTES – 
The majorify of these incidents seems to stem from lack of spacial awareness and lack of respect to other drivers. Please can we aim to use CrewChief going forward. It’s free and invaluable. DOWNLOAD HERE

Protests from Round 1 (Imola 2001)

1) CHEALL protesting MAJOOR

Cheall feels that Majoor has used the pitlane to make a move. John holds his line as it becomes 4 wide. At this point Majoor turns into the side of Cheall and causes a large collision.

The stewards agreed with this. They felt that Majoor moved to pass Cheall, but as the road ran out he moves left into the side of Cheall, causing a ripple effect of accidents. The pit lane exit was always going to end at some point, you have a responsibility to pass cars safely. As this is the first offence, we have given Majoor a Reprimand.

2) PROVOST protesting SMITH, A

Provost states that as they drove side by side, he had left the room for Smith, but despite this, a collision still occurred.

After much in depth analysis of this incident, the stewards have to decided to call this a racing incident. Both cars do appear to leave space, it just seems that the trajectory of two cars going through one corner led to an unfortunate incident. Regardless of who’s involved going forward, please always take extra care when attempting moves like this.

REPRIMANDS
Please note that typically on your first incident you may be given a reprimand. This remains with you for the duration of the series and can lead to more severe penalties should something happen again. Thank you.
