    Late seventies, early eighties I saw those Ford Capri Belga & BBL, BMW Luigi, Chevy Camaro Bastos and so many Volvo, VW Sirocco, etc at the 24hrs of Spa-Francorchamps. Those cars were so fun to drive and to watch. At the time racing drivers knew how well to handle a manual gear box.

    Took them over 30 seconds to red-flag the race after the Golf spill and 5 seconds after the Camaro crash. There was no reason to red-flag on the last lap other than to disadvantage the rightful winner who kept his car on the track. The Mustang should have won.

    • @GoodwoodRR

Until he was out of the Camaro and obviously unharmed, the only sensible flag was red - to enable the firies/medics to get there ASAP without getting grief from race cars. A yellow would have been OK if the Camaro had just hit the barrier and stopped upright. It was clear of the track and not an obstruction to race cars.

    • @joeogle7729
      @joeogle7729 Рік тому +7

      I don't think there's anything suspicious at play and I think it's better to assume incompetence or a simple mistake over malace and something going on behind closed doors.
      I think the logic the race directors were going with was the golf's incident and the Camaro's incident were virtually identical. And if they gave a red flag for the Golf's crash then by the same standards they had to red flag the Camaro's crash as well. I think they were also concerned how well drivers would stick to just waved yellows compared to a red and if another car went off and hit the Camaro it would have been very VERY ugly.

      It's standard for them to Red flag a race with cars on track as the field is neutralised. And they routinely use a count back if a race is in the last few laps. They look who was 1st on the last lap and they win.

      You can't have a green flag after a red. All cars must immediately stop racing and return to somewhere specified. However, if the organisers want to declare the places at some earlier point, like the end of the previous lap, that's the only way that the race could be deemed to have finished.
