RAM Racing pairing Ian Loggie and Jules Gounon won the Oulton contest on the road, but a mid-race red flag during the pitstop period meant their success penalty for finishing second in race one was added to their race time and demoted them to fifth.
RAM’s protest into the result, lodged on the basis that the rulebook did not have a provision to determine what the correct procedure should be for such an eventuality, was rejected but swiftly followed by an appeal to the National Court.
