AdrianM should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
How many of the delays you point out are the fault of competitors rather than the circuit and/or officials though?

I've lost count of the number of times my series has been called to the assembly area but drivers are still sitting around eating in their street clothes rather than suited up ready to go. It's not rocket science to work out the time band in which you're going to be called and be ready.

Not to mention that a lot of the delays in the race themselves are from people not paying attention to the flags. I watched several races at Brands last year where yellow and even red flags were out for several corners before the majority of the field even noticed them.

Same thing happened in the one race I saw with Code 60. Some drivers saw the flag and obeyed, others just shot by them and then sorting out who should be where delayed things even more.
