I too was stood at the chicane when Smith paid you a visit and I have to say that I agree with the decision of the Clerks. I am not an observer but I can see and the fact that you had only had one car in that particular gravel trap previous to Smith all weekend is ( in my view) no reason to think that he was in a safe place. The fact that Smith was your second visitor was surely a good reason to move him, especially given the conditions and the number of cars that were bunched up together through the approach to the chicane etc...
