What could possibly be changed by winning that protest? Is it purely about vindication?
Also, has it been confirmed wether Supercars use a radar or GPS timing loop for enforcing the pit lane limit? |

How do we know that the pics above match the data with it. They are from different sources |

If it is a matter if such importance, why aren’t all teams invited to understand how the process works? |

Hopefully nothing comes of this. The 2017 championship would have a huge asterisk next to it, not to mention the integrity of Supercars itself.

To me the data is clear as day. It's mistake from the officials. Nothing can or will ever come of this though.

Sure, if that isn't the car data from that particular pit entry then it's rubbish, but if it is that data then it's all very clear. If the team has data which shows he was speeding they certainly wouodn't be pursuing anything, however they have the info from the multiple sources available to them which are to the contrary.

In NSW, Fixed Speed Cameras also use timing loops. IIRC the one on Spit Hill was found to be faulty (loop wires were too close together).

Fairly good explanation from Craig Baird on how pit lane speeds are measured. https://www.speedcafe.com/2017/11/30...lin-penalties/
