2002 Rally Regs
A meeting of the FIA last Friday (14th) has made the following changes to regulations re: World Rallys
Safety - The World Championship Rally Commission has been mandated to propose a radical overhaul of arrangements for spectator safety. Reconnaissance - The number of passages in reconnaissance for asphalt rallies may be increased to three (currently two). Maximum number of starters - A maximum of 90 cars may start each event of the Championship. Start order in the Championship Rallies - Leg One: Cars will start in Championship order Legs Two & Three: The top 15 cars will start in reverse order Start intervals - For safety reasons, the Stewards may extend the interval between any group of drivers or between any two drivers and may reseed any driver within a particular group. Third priority drivers - Drivers entered in the FIA Junior World Rally Championship and the FIA Production Car World Rally Championship will be included in the third priority list. Doughnuts - The drivers may not perform doughnuts at any time during the start, finish or other ceremonial procedures of the rally. For more details look at www.fia.com/homepage/selection-a.html |

I like the fact they had to put that last one in the regs
Start intervals - good idea, don't know why it wasn't done before. Starters - A shame, but probably best for the sport at this level. Starting order - I thought day 2/3 was going to be chosen, or don't they want the Colin McRae/Australia fiasco again? |
