checked against: 16.2 Fuel testing: Random fuel test samples by the scrutineer are<br />
permissible. For events that specify a single source fuel, an industry recognised fuel comparison testing machine is<br />
authorised. In this case, and on condition that the test is conducted by a qualified technician to the manufacturer’s<br />
instructions, then this test procedure will become the definitive test of compliance for that event.<br />
3.16.2) Front wing flaps: The wing flaps may be adjusted within the scope of that allowed by the mandatory wing<br />
end plate. In any case the minimum wing angle in relation to the reference plane is 10° and the maximum wing<br />
angle is 24°, measured longitudinally on the flat surface of the flap adjacent to the front wing end plate. 3.16.6) Rear<br />
wing upper elements: These elements must be fixed directly to the rear wing end plates and brackets with no<br />
additional parts. They must be considered as one unit and cannot be adjusted separately from each other. The<br />
angle difference between the elements, when measured longitudinally on top of the element chords is 32° ± 30’.<br />

able to drive, but got involved anyway. Please give us feedback—would you like Wi-Fi for subsequent rounds?<br />
Anything else?<br />
2. Testing.<br />
2.1 Thruxton. Your exclusive pre-race test is over 3-weeks earlier than the race meeting - on Tuesday 9th April<br />
(next week). This is due to local authority restrictions. Your two sessions have been booked and paid for,<br />
exclusively for our championship only. Sessions are scheduled for 09:00-09:45 and 13:00-13:40. Should you need<br />
more information your circuit contact there is Pat Blakeney on 01264 882 211 or 07774 713 700;<br />
pat@thruxtonracing.co.uk.<br />
2.2 Donington Park. Thursday 18th April has sessions at 10:30-11:10 and 15:00-15:40 exclusively for us.<br />
2.3 Schedules for testing, parking-up and provisional time tables for the whole year are on the championship<br />
website in the Teams Area.<br />
3. Donington Park. It is possible to park up for the weekend event from Wednesday 17th April between 16:00-<br />
17:00; Thursday 07:30-09:30 or Friday 09:00-11:00. We must work with the parking-up team for every event, and<br />
arrive during the times specified in order for them to make the best presentation of our paddock. They also have<br />
dimensions and details of your paddock display and will calculate each paddock design using this information—so<br />
please let me know if it changes for any reason.<br />
4. Livery. Some teams did not have time to change their side pod livery. Please would it be done for the next<br />
round—the design is different to last year and reads ‘Powered by EcoBoost’. There will be longer name plates<br />
available for the next event for those requiring them.<br />
