SEASON 13 - ROUND 1
SILVERSTONE GP
NATMANSCOOP PROTEST
Stewards group found Natman guilty of inappropriate driving, and as such have given a DSQ for race 1, and a season probation whereby any further 'intentional' or repetitive rule breaches (eg track limits) will result in a season ban.
This decision was based on the following
- Clear and obvious cutting of corners to make up for mistakes, or track limit cuts on numerous occasions.
- What looks like intentional hitting of trackside brake markers.
- Contact on lap 1 could be argued was a race incident, as the cars in front do check up.
- The incident @4:34 could also be argued as a 50/50, although as a lapped car you still time and space to avoid contact.
- History from last season (season 12) in races in round 4 at Zolder and Round 5 at Bugatti where track limit breaches resulted in penalty.
- This DSQ cannot be used as a drop round.
Natman does have the right to appeal this decision,. and as usual, any appeal will be viewed by koastr and his deciosn will be final.
*EDIT* Natman has accepted the decision
