Default Marshall Change

How do you think the change in marshalling went last Friday.

Yer I think we should stick to the old fashioned marshal after your race.

I agree with ollie , people were still late out too marshall and pete was still having too remind people so i didnt see the benefit and on the note of marshaling i thought it was appauling if your marshaling you should be watching the track in front of you not watching the race or talking too your mates dont know what other peoples thoughts are on this

Thats true, in my final I think there was a pile up at the left corner and there was a marshall on the track. I couldnt see my car so I ended up running to the back of Heath I think.
I wasnt too bothered tbh because the marshall was doing his job and Heath wasnt affected too badly.

I know there was an issue at the top right aswell but I managed to dodge most big pile ups, which is probably the reason I went from almost last to 2nd within 2 laps
I did see a role of tape on the track too, probably left after track repairs.

I think marshalls just need to get off the track as quick and as safely as possible. And when not moving try and stay low so not to obstruct the view of the track.
