News: Marshalling Success!
As part of the championship regulations for the GAZ Shocks Production BMW Championship, an additional 30 points (the same as a race win) can be added to the drivers championship tallies if they completed a days marshalling at a MSA sanctioned event before the last of our championship rounds (see regs)
A number of the drivers decided to take advantage of this, including nearly all of the top 10 drivers. Everyone who completed the marshalling duties had a great day; experiencing motorsport from a new perspective and getting a feel good factor from helping other drivers out.
“Having just done my marshalling at the WTCC event at Brands Hatch, I found it to be a great day, and one I would thoroughly enjoy doing again. It was brilliant to give something back to those who volunteer their services for us” Tony Smith
