Stoowert, I'm in complete agreement with you about how it ought to be, although in my recent experience I can't say I've had either problem.

Re #2, at Oulton I think I've always had a briefing, but at Silverstone I'm always flagging so don't necessarily get one (unless I do it myself). If I can see the nearest incident post having a briefing I do go along and say hello.

AS EP says, though, for some series I wouldn't dream of going trackside while they're out because I don't trust them, but that's not a specific policy, just something I judge on the day. For series where I know in advance I don't trust them then I choose not to attend. Curiously these seem to be the more popular with other marshals which makes me wonder if:

1) They prefer these kinds of drivers
2) They prefer this kind of marshalling
3) That's what they mostly experience and it's being taken into... less high profile meetings.
