  • Car failure for the Audi driver at Quarry corner. Very lucky to see everyone escape without injuries as both drivers are OK!

    Feel for both.
    Jasmine was driving brilliantly in changing conditions and passing GT cars before the car failed
    And Phil Young has campaigned that old Colt for years, usually in Super Silhouettes and was a very recognisable regular. Poor dude has to win the the wrong place at the wrong time award for 2024

      he probabaly lost the brakes... and aimed directly at the wall with no way to stop. That must feel absolutely horrible.

    Jeez. I know its the heat of the moment, and an instant decision to be made, but seems like putting it the barrier on the left instead of going for a 90° unabated impact wouldve been a better choice. I know its all hindsight. Its human nature to want to not crash at all. But in that situ youre always gonna, just hit something at a shallow angle and scrub off speed. That car was headed towards the absolute worst angle with the barrier that it couldve.

    sorry but the marshals doing so much wrong. Never go on track, before the track is neutralised. What, if another far crashes in there?? The first rule as a Marshal is: Your life is the most important! The car can burn but you as a marshal are not allowed to help until the track is neutralised with an SC, Red Flag or C60 (Nordschleife)

      @influentialgurning 4 месяца назад +13

      Who told you this, and when?
      The term 'neutralised' sounds snazzy, but, unless the track is empty, there's some risk, and the situation is not neutral. Yellow flags indicate that cars should be aware of an incident and not race past the portion affected, and it takes moments to put them into effect. Safety Cars can take minutes to gather in the field, and cars still crash or lose control behind Safety Cars. If every crash engenders an instant red flag, this will not reduce the likelihood of crashes per mile raced (probably quite the opposite), but it will drastically reduce the miles raced.
      These blokes seemed to start helping while flags were already waving, and, as long as they don't add peril or hindrance to others, it's ultimately for them to weigh the risk that they will take against the benefit they can offer.

      @@influentialgurning one of the race directors from the Nürburgring told us this as we made our marshal license. yes if there is single yellow waved, the driver will step from the throttle a couple of a second because he will not loose time. Single yellow is mostly no secure for the saftey of a marshal, when he steps on the track. if there is double yellow, especially on the Nordschleife, the drivers are only allowed to drive 120 kph. that makes it a bit safer but we get the order from the race direction not to step out on the track until we have for example Code 60 on the Nordschleife. When the Car is burning and there is no C60, whe are not allowed to help. at the end of the day, the driver takes the risk of dying while racing, when he gets into the car. thats the bad trough. you as a marshal are for your own Security responsible. would you step out on the track, while the cars are racing on the track? when there is a rally car or so wich only one car is driving, its clear to help but at an endurance race, its much more difficult. you dont get much paid as a marshal, in Germany its a voluntary job. the official rule to help is: "secure first with flags", "then report the incident, "then help", when its safe. if you wish, i can send you a link to the marshal Manual.

    • @influentialgurning
      @influentialgurning 4 месяца назад +2

      @@ronny_doeschner That's interesting. As you explain, it's important for race workers and racers to understand any common procedures, so that useful operations aren't interrupted by confusion. Bearing this in mind, it's fundamentally important to leave as much latitude as is possible with each worker or participant to make decisions according to his judgement.
      In life generally, the first inviolable principle must be always to sustain sinless liberty. In a closed and basically private system like a race track event, the owners of the facility can set any rule they want as long as they don't wilfully commit harm, and, in my opinion, it would be daft if marshals and drivers weren't drilled by a director of operations on obedience to signals like flags. At the other extreme, under the guise of perfecting safety or improving entertainment, a rule could easily be made commanding every slightest action taken by anybody involved on-track.
      My point was to guard against that latter extreme, which, sadly, we are creeping closer towards, at the expense of autonomy. We should rely on our own senses and reason as much as possible, and limit the use of rules so as to only make mutual actions (to which each individual agrees to adhere) as effective as possible. The video was a good example of differing opinions about behaviour, as you and I slightly disagree about the risk that can be taken and who bears it. I agree that racers own the consequences of the danger to which they knowingly submit, but I think that marshals can be left to make decisions to help without all of the restrictions that you prescribe.
      Above all, we each must decide with what we agree and disagree, and we should avoid falsely perceiving that rules hold authority and sagacity simply because they exist as rules widely obeyed. You happen to agree with the Nürburg Manual, and, so, you can become a marshal. Were you to disagree with the Manual, your reasonable options would be to suggest alterations and to avoid marshalling until the Manual matches your mindset.
      In England, at this track, it seems that what they have agreed may not align with your view of the German procedure. It's good that we maintain discussion at all levels to find out what works best, and never rest on someone else's laurels.
