No OWRS crews allowed in Indy?

Martin Schmidt 13 April 2005 01:55:32
 During the Long Beach race the German commentators said that no OWRS pit
crews are allowed to be "used" during the Indy500. Is this true?

Not really. The new rule this season is misinterpreted often -- even I did,
at first.

Rule 5.5.6 of the 2005 Champ Car Rule Book states:

"No Champ Car entrant may use Champ Car chassis, equipment, personnel or
team resources to perform testing of any type for any other racing team in
any series, any manufacturer or other third party. [...]"

"Testing" being the keyword here. Otherwise, the Newman/Haas drivers
wouldn't be able to join the IRL 500, eh? You could interpret them as
either personnel or team resources :)­

It's mainly to prevent teams from using, say, IRL cars to test some parts
("equipment") -- not that this is possible or useful, but that's not my
point. By the way, does it sound familiar?

Duck.

It's boring watching this thing on the monitor.

It would be awful hard to mandate something like that rule against the IRL
anyways.

I mean how can you legally tell a business who you can and cannot hire?. If
I was a CC team and wanted to run the fi-hunnert, I would simply start a
whole new company and hire those people as independent contractors for the
one race instead of running under your usual banner. There would be ways of
easily getting around it.
