As it's Josh first year I would think he wasn't in charge of any of the races.
Refs report will say what needs to rectified before next meeting so fully expect the tapes will be mentioned.
We try and do the same but some teams are so chaotic they get missed.
In my opinion if the team manager doesn't tell you then the ref should exclude the rider after the race.
They will only do it once.
A lot of promoters would rather have cheaper riders in heat 15 if the result is not in doubt.
Nominations are at Team Managers discretion so you do not have to use best riders.
I agree but do you seriously think track men go out of their way to prep tracks like tha?
Last night there was a lot of head scratching as to why it went the way it did.
