Engel & Erebus - Both docked 102 points ??
It appears that both Maro Engel & ErebusV8 have had the equivalent of all points scored at Winton, applied as penalties against their (Drivers & Teams) Championship points !
Natsoft are showing the Penalty Points, but all is very quiet on V8SC, Erebus, Ad-Cafe etc. websites. Why ??? |

Yes... but ONLY on (both) Points Tables (which possibly comes from Natsoft?)
BUT!!! Nothing in 'News' or 'Stewards Reports' or anywhere else ![]() Why is it not being reported/explained on the 'official' / SpeedCafe / ErebusV8 websites ![]() ![]() GTR... anything from the Powder Room ? Last edited by ForumNick; 11 Dec 2013 at 08:54. |

Wasn't there some issue with a team transporter as well?

As I understand it, an engine from #9 was sent back to Germany for refurbishing at AMG/HWA. The seals were removed from the engine prior to sending without obtaining explicit approval of the category technical director before doing so.
So it appears that the Erebus AMG team & car #9 were penalised what seems to be 52 points for the oversight. |

So effectively, they get 'psuedo' excluded from Winton Results? Why Winton? Did they run the refurbished/unsealed engine there? So many unanswered questions. Still seems 'fishy' to me, that it's not being reported... ! Last edited by ForumNick; 12 Dec 2013 at 04:21. |

![]() Even if you gave Mr Engel back the 102 points, he would still be the lowest scoring regular series pilot. |

I think one of the biggest problems with Mr Engel is that he still resided in Monaco this year and commuted to each race. I would have thought the right way to do it is to move to Australia like Mr Premat did.

He got pole and would've won the race at this year's Macau GT had his car not failed. So he's a very fast driver, capable of lapping quicker than guys like Mortara, but driving in a set of new tracks with a foreign car, he suffered.

Maybe he was making sure he was on to a long term thing before moving? He (or Erebus?) must have dropped a bit of coin to commute to every round though
