Upgrades

Please see below recent questions regarding upgrading during COVID that were asked at MSUK. Further details will be sent by MSUK with updates on grading.

Am I correct that upgrade assessments can now recommence on the 17th May 2021?

MSUK: Yes, where social distancing can be maintained and local government guidance allows. Attendance records filled in by the individual from 2020 are acceptable towards an upgrade – even though they are not countersigned by the Post Chief etc. and there is no opportunity for written feedback.

If necessary, will Motorsport UK will check attendance records with the organising clubs?

MSUK: Yes, this is correct.

Training is normally required every other year as a minimum. As it may not have been possible for people to attend training in both 2020 and 2021 is this rule is being relaxed for these two years?

MSUK: Correct – For 2021, training module signatures are valid from 2018 onwards.

If a marshal opted to miss the 2020 season entirely (due to COVID-19 rather than simply taking a year off) for upgrade purposes do we act as if 2020 didn’t exist? i.e. we go from 2019 straight to 2021 when looking at the PRC and ignore the 12 month gap in attendance records.

MSUK: Yes, for 2021 event attendance signatures are valid from 2017 onwards.
