Supercars says the system it uses to determine the speed of cars entering pit lane is ‘foolproof’ following DJR Team Penske’s move to seek clarity over a pit lane speeding penalty issued to Scott McLaughlin in Newcastle.
While accepting the championship outcome, DJR Team Penske released a statement confirming a meeting with Supercars technical staff on Monday to discuss and understand why the penalty was handed down.
Supercars has issued its own statement today claiming there was no error in regards to McLaughlin’s penalty, reiterating the 100 percent accuracy of the five metre timing loop system used to judge the speed of vehicles entering pit lane.
“The Dorian timing system is a foolproof, point to point system with an accuracy to 1/10,000 of a second,” read the statement.
“As a fixed system with a time to distance calculation the data is 100 percent accurate.
