Things like basic first aid, incident management now all forms part of a one day course. Quote

billy sugger Posted January 22, 2022 Posted January 22, 2022 (edited) I was a race Marshall for 15 years, 9 of them as a chief marshal. My first aid training was via Warwickshire Air ambulance service, to a higher standard than your everyday first aider. I was what is known as a BOB, of black overalled bast**d, due to our fireproof overalls being black and orange. I got invited to Marshall at the BSB at Silverstone but wasn't needed, though I did get free tickets so went. The only protection those guys had were straw bales to stand behind, bugger that stopping a bike Edited January 22, 2022 by billy sugger Spelling Quote
