| Post subject: | Driver Conduct Rules --2011 Additions |
The following additions or clarifications are planned for 2011 for the Cup Driver Conduct Rules: Team Formation: Any driver changes that are to take place must first be reported to a Cup official. Failure to report driver changes will result in penalties or disqualification. All drivers must have the required licensing and memberships. Starts: Race starts can feature either rolling starts or standing starts. For rolling starts, all cars will maintain the speed of the Pace Car on the warm up lap until the Green Flag drops. Failure to maintain pace or excessive gapping of the pace car or the cars in the row ahead is not permitted and will be cause for a drive thru penalty. For standing starts, drivers determined to have jumped the start will be black flagged and required to do a drive through penalty. Alternatively, drivers who violate the starting procedures will be assessed a 3 position penalty after the race. Car Contact: All metal to metal incidents must be immediately reported to a Cup official, Drivers involved in incidents need to provide Cup officials the numbers of the cars involved, description of the incident, and video footage from cars involved or from cars that were in sight of the incident. Failure to report may result in penalties in addition to those for the contact in question. Driver Sanctions: Additionally, a driver will also be suspended from the series for the balance of the season for the use of any device determined to be employed for the intention of circumventing dyno testing or any electronic device for improving traction control. Rules of the Road: A pass must be made on the paved surface of the track. The penalty for passing with wheels off the track will be one position in the race results. If the overtaking car has overlap on the car being passed and is then forced off track, no penalty will be applied to the overtaking car. Defensive driving is permitted, blocking is not. A driver is permitted to change lanes or the line once when employing a defensive position. More then one maneuver to prevent a pass is considered blocking. The penalty for blocking will result in the driver being penalized one position in the race results. |
