Rahimdad Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 I am a part of EMSF Marshals and attended only off-road events including bikes. But refused F1 invitation as it required 6 weekends training which I could not commit myself to due to my off road passion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topgear Posted September 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 @Rahimdad I have emailed them but the email that I found is incorrect. Do you have the right email? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rahimdad Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 There used to be Sarah who used to email me for all the events. Unfortunately I've stopped attending all Marshal events for past 5 years and Sarah stopped emailing me. I will try to dig up some old emails from my archives if I still have them. No luck so far. You can always visit EMSF office in Mamzar, they're open from 8 am to 2 pm for public. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sajit Modiyil Posted September 23, 2020 Report Share Posted September 23, 2020 F1 is a long lost passion for me. Motogp is where thrill meets passion, talent and everything else in the world. Race Sunday’s I will be at home before 4 to watch it live on wide screen. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dominance of a particular team or too many rules changes? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rahimdad Posted September 23, 2020 Report Share Posted September 23, 2020 @topgear too little respect given to Marshals and it's not paid. Some of those old timers who understood the value of Marshals are long gone and with GNFD last attempt for Guineas book of World Records for most number of 4x4s off road I completely lost it. 60 Marshals to control over 1000 cars, plus media vehicles, plus VIPs. The worst mistake we had to clear a fenced area where only one car could come through at a point and the kept the counting station for the World Record just after that fence in an open field where 60 Marshal cars could not block the area. So the record was lost even before the event took off. Really that was a point when I felt it was totally unsafe and quit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topgear Posted September 23, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2020 @Rahimdad I can understand the frustration, especially the chaos for 1000 cars to come through an opening for a single car! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
