Colin White - Ginetta GT4 race at Brands
Did anyone see the Ginetta GT4 Supercup race on ITV4 this afternoon? Wtf was Colin White doing getting out of the car on the grid with the 30 sec board showing?? V dangerous.
I have regularly been on grids where the 30 sec board is never an indication of 30 secs to go!!! The red lights could have come on almost instantly after the 30 sec board has been withdrawn. It happens. And then there could have been mayhem if the race had started with him still out of the car, trying to get in the car, door open etc.
I find it virtually impossible to do my own belts up without help. Can anyone be sure White was properly strapped in; how does anyone know the belts were properly over the HANS device?
The start should have been abandoned imho and he should have been removed from the grid for being a pillock!
Any clerks care to comment?
