    Blame alleskids, he said that as there are no stages left, the roll cage wouldn't matter.

    I guess it would be best if some olddo ( ) copied official rules here.

    Sure blame it on me that Hirvone made such a mess of his leading position on the last sgtage(s) If he just drove nice and steady, we would not have had this discussion about post-race scrutineering

    Why can't FRM do what they are supposed to be good at and fix it. Call in there Japaneese Bear and threaten the scrutineers that they wil be eaten alive.

    How badly does a roll cage need to be before the car is automaticly disqualified?

    No. Anything that weakens the structure. The chances of a scratch weakening T45 steal are millions to one and I think you know that....

    When there is enough damage to be disqualified, but the damage is only to a small part to the structure, does the entire cage need to be replaced?

    the cage needs to be up to the safety standards that it is complied under. If that means repairing or replacing the cage, then that is what is required.

    In the case of Mikko's car in Wales 2006, would a new bar have needed to be welded on or a new cage because that is the only place that the cage was weakend?
