Marshals’ Bulletin
August 2020
We hope you and your family are keeping well, and that you are once again enjoying the restart of motorsport in the UK. After 110 days, we restarted motorsport on 4th July and since then we have resumed all twelve disciplines across the British Isles, with over 300 events taking place in the opening two months.
We would like to thank you all for your continued support throughout the resumption of motorsport. We have all had to do things differently, and we commend your passion, enthusiasm and dedication to the variety of roles you undertake.
In the current climate, Motorsport UK would like to reassure the marshal community that your current marshalling grades will not be affected and will remain valid for 2021. Further details are provided in this month’s Bulletin. We also have a special webinar hosted by Motorsport UK with BTCC front-runner Dan Cammish next week, and we would like to extend an invitation to our marshalling community to join the session and put your questions to the Honda Yuasa Racing driver.
Don’t forget, in addition to your go-to resource motorsportuk.org, we encourage you to follow our Facebook, Twitter and Instagram channels for all the latest news, features and updates on all things motorsport in the UK. If you are out and about on events, make sure you share your weekend by tagging us on social media – @OurMotorsportUK and use #BackOnTrack
In this month’s bulletin you will find information about the following:
- Grade Maintenance and 2021 renewals
- COVID-19 Guidance
- Marshal Upgrade Applications
- Personal Record Cards
- Under 18 Marshal Policies
- The Learning Hub
- Exclusive Q&A with BTCC star Dan Cammish
We hope to see you at a motorsport event in the not too distant future.
