BENNETTS BRITISH SUPERBIKE CHAMPIONSHIP
EMERGENCY/INCIDENT PROCEDURE – PROTOCOL (2018)
This document, distributed to all British Superbike Senior Officials, Incident Officers, event Chief Medical Officers, event medical services and circuit management, acts as a general guideline to make BSB events ever more professional. It is intended to establish key operating procedures in the event of accidents and incidents. BSB events are staffed by a permanent team of marshals and officials and these procedures which are not specific to any venue have been developed over a number of years.
Stuart Higgs Bennetts BSB Series and Race Director MSVR
March 2017 ______
INTRODUCTION
All incidents or accidents around the circuit are reported by radio to Race Control. Each circuit is divided into a number of sectors. The Incident Officer is in charge of all the personnel within his sector and is in direct radio communication with Race Control.
Incidents requiring the use of intervention vehicles generally fall into two categories:
1. Medical – A rider is injured and requires on-scene medical assistance and controlled transport to the Circuit Medical Centre.
2. Technical – The track is contaminated with a substance requiring treatment, or the first line of protection has been compromised and requires attention.
The following procedures describe the ideal manner in which incidents should be approached, but local conditions may require modification under direction of Race Control or CMO.
1. MEDICAL INCIDENTS - General
Motorcycle racing medical incident handling techniques differ totally from car racing by strongly promoting the use of strategically placed „Ground Posts‟, staffed by either Doctors or Paramedics for fast trackside intervention and patient removal in the event of non-urgent cases. If the situation requires extra assistance then this will come in the manner described in this document.
The ground post medic will, in the first instance, assess the casualty; then decide if the rider can be moved to a safe position by scoop stretcher. If the injuries are not of a serious nature, the treatment will be carried out at a place of relative safety until an ambulance arrives from either:
a) The service roads in the public areas b) Around the circuit at the end of the practice session or race.
If the Incident Officer and / or Medical Officer require extra assistance the following procedures apply:
• The Incident Officer requests extra assistance by contacting Race Control, giving a Kilo Code for rider condition and Kilo White. • Race Control dispatches Intervention vehicles under controlled conditions. At the scene, the Incident Officer maintains radio communication with Race Control, giving estimates of extra resources required and time until the incident is cleared. • The casualty is collected and vehicle proceeds to the Medical Centre and / or back to its original position.
Movement of Intervention vehicles -Notes for Medical Car / Ambulance personnel and Incident Officers;
All intervention vehicles (including Medical Cars and Ambulances) move ONLY upon the direct instruction of Race Control.
• Incident Officers must clearly ask for the support vehicle they require (Kilo White, Ambulance / Medical Car).
• Vehicles should travel along the side of the circuit on which they are located. When there are motorcycles on the circuit, they should only cross the circuit or racing line under the direction of Race Control or the local marshals. In extreme cases, the discretion of an experienced Medical Car Driver is acceptable. Extreme care must be exercised by all concerned in this situation; if in doubt, do not cross the racing line.
• If placed on „STAND BY‟ by Race Control, vehicles should switch on their engines and roof/headlights to alert the nearest flag points. Roof/headlights should be switched off when instructed to „STAND DOWN‟. ALWAYS acknowledge radio instructions to Stand By, Stand Down and move / scramble. Switch engines on and check roof lights regularly.
• When on the circuit during a „scramble‟, use ROOF and HEADLIGHTS ONLY, NOT hazard lights. Use indicators to signal intention and direction when leaving the circuit. All intervention vehicles should travel at a speed appropriate to the current track conditions; the driver should remember that the track surface may be contaminated with fluid or debris as a result of the original incident.
• When arriving at an incident, Medical Cars should park in a FEND OFF position to protect the casualty and marshals/medics. Ambulances should park in a position which will expedite loading of the casualty. If the ambulance will depart the scene in „wrong circuit direction‟ the vehicle should ideally be turned around on arrival at the incident. Incident Officers are requested to assist drivers by directing the vehicles to park in the best position.
• If under Safety Car conditions, the Medical Car / Ambulance driver must stay in the vehicle with the radio at all times when attending incidents.
2. INCIDENT REPORTING – RADIO COMMUNICATIONS
The phonetic call-sign allocated to the Incident Officer will be used, transmissions should be prefixed e.g. “BASE FROM GOLF”. “Golf to Base” should not be used as the call sign may be lost in the early part of the transmission.
The Incident Officer’s first report should be an alert of the incident; in the event of potential escalation, ask BASE to “STAND BY”. To advise of the potential intervention time and possible further assistance required the following classifications will be used;
KILO YELLOW SHORT Intervention period less than two minutes / laps
KILO YELLOW LONG Intervention period in excess of two minutes / laps
KILO PACE Incident Officer requests a Safety Car intervention
KILO WHITE Request Medical Car or Ambulance (IO to specify) during practice session or race either LIVE or under Safety Car
KILO RED Request practice session or race to be stopped (IO to specify technical or medical)
KILO GREEN All clear following KILO YELLOW or KILO WHITE
The primary responsibility of the Incident Officer is to maintain radio communication with Race Control until Kilo Green is declared.
3. MOVEMENT OF NON URGENT CASUALTIES
Injured riders who are treated by the Medical Officer on site and are not in a serious condition, may be transported to the Medical Centre via service roads, or one of the medical vehicles stationed around the circuit will collect the casualty and transport him back to the Medical Centre via the track at the end of the session or race (Kilo 20).
The movement of medical vehicles is controlled by Race Control under the authority of the Race Director.
4. KILO RED (MEDICAL) – GENERAL PROCEDURES
If an injured rider is on the track or run-off area and cannot be moved to an area of safety immediately behind the first line of protection (generally within two minutes or two laps); it may be necessary to stop or neutralise the race / practice session and dispatch a medical vehicle to the scene. On the basis that motorcycle accidents occur generally on the outside of a corner or curve, fully equipped Medical Cars are strategically located around the circuit for this purpose.
The Incident Officer, based on advice from the Medical Officer or other circumstances may request that the race or practice session be stopped (Kilo Red Medical). If the condition of the rider is potentially life threatening, the additional code KILO 13 should be added to the radio call. The race or practice will only be stopped at the order of the Race Director with the following responses taking place:
1) Race Control Instructs Red flag / lights to be shown at all points 2) Scramble nearest Medical Car 3) Dispatch nearest on-track Ambulance to the scene 4) Dispatch Safety Car with Chief Incident Officer 5) Dispatch Recovery vehicles 6) The section Incident Officer maintains communication with race control and the Chief. Incident Officer assists with the management of the incident. The Race Director, CMO and Chief IO (reporting) may attend serious incidents (potentially or actually fatal and incidents involving injuries to the public or officials 7) Casualty evacuated to Medical Centre 8) Vehicles return to their original positions
5. KEY PERSONNEL AND RESPONSIBILITES
Most Pre-Hospital Trauma and Life Support (PHTLS) protocols have been developed to provide the best patient care during a journey of portions of an hour on public roads to definitive care. At BSB meetings, this journey will usually last portions of minutes over a well prepared racing circuit to high quality care in the Circuit Medical Centre. Therefore, in some cases, a well managed “scoop and run” procedure may cause less distress to the patient than more established protocols. However, appropriate medical care must not be compromised and the decisions of the medical practitioner with the patient are final.
The ground post medic should manage the medical care of the patient at the incident scene. Because the ground post medic witnessed the incident and understands the mechanism of injury involved, they should decide upon the method of extrication to be used. Where support, or skills beyond the ability or qualification of the ground post medic are required, these should be requested and appropriate practitioners will be despatched. The overall control of extrication remains with the ground post medic until the patient is loaded into an ambulance. At this point, the patient will be properly „handed over‟ for transport.
The Medical Car Crew should assist the ground post medic to deliver appropriate care to the patient, using such advanced skills as are required. They do not take control of patient extrication from the ground post medic, but may offer advice and assist if required.
The Medical Car Driver(s) (if the session has been red flagged) may assist with the treatment of the patient in a fetch, carry and communicate‟ role. Where two Medical Cars are on scene, one driver becomes exclusively responsible for all required communications on both race and medical radio channels. Example call: “Medic 2 on scene, driver on med comms.
The Section Incident Officer is primarily responsible for radio communications with Race Control. He should notify Race Control of the incident and request the appropriate support. After directing the initial response to the incident, he should then concentrate on gathering and communicating information required by Race Control. This information includes, but is not limited to: • The number of riders involved and their racing numbers • The number of casualties, their identities and kilo codes • Specialist medical practitioners required • Estimates of support personnel and equipment required • Estimate of time to clear the incident • Identification of key witnesses to serious incidents • Preparation of written incident reports including descriptions of the incident.
The Chief Incident Officer directs the operational response to the incident on scene to ensure that all elements of the emergency team are working properly and efficiently. This includes but is not limited to:
• Direction of arriving medical and support vehicles • Direction of racing surface treatment activities • Direction of machine position recording and recovery (photos if required) • Liaison with on scene medical team for time estimation and re-stock requirements • Requesting attendance of Race Director, CMO or Chief IO(reporting) if required.
6. NEUTRALISATION PROCEDURE – SAFETY CAR
The use of a Safety Car is authorised for all classes competing at BSB meetings unless specifically excluded in the event final instructions
The object of this regulation is to give Marshals and Medical staff more time to evaluate an incident prior to a decision being made in Race Control. It will only be used when trackside officials may be put at risk or following a request from an Incident Officer. If the incident is regarded as possibly serious, or the Safety Car is in operation for an excessive time then the race will be stopped. If the race is eventually stopped, the result of the first part of the race will be declared as at the end of the lap prior to the Safety car being introduced.
The general procedure will be as follows:- • Race control instructs “All points show Safety car flags now” – Startline to show 'Safety Car‟ board • Race control dispatches Safety Car displaying red roof lights to pick up the race leader. • When the incident is clear the Safety Car will be instructed to “extinguish roof lights” and all flag points should show a number board with a single digit “0”. • The Safety Car will enter the Pitlane at the end of the current lap. • The race will be resumed by the showing of the green flag at the startline only; at this point Race Control will instruct flag points to “Withdraw Safety Flags”
Priority radio silence must be observed during any pace car intervention
The full Safety Car Procedure is as follows: • A red flag with diagonal white cross will be displayed motionless at all marshals‟ flag posts during the neutralisation. • The riders must immediately slow down. Overtaking is forbidden. • A black board bearing the symbol “SC” will be displayed on the start line during the whole neutralisation. • Where circuits are equipped with LED panels the SC light will be displayed during the whole neutralisation. • When the leading rider approaches the start line or other location described in the event final instructions, a clearly marked “Safety Car” will enter the circuit, with flashing red roof lights switched on. • The riders catching the “Safety Car” will line up in single file behind the car, without overtaking it. • Riders may stop at the pits. However, all current pitlane regulations must be adhered to. • After stopping at the pits, riders must line up in a single file at the pit lane exit and may only rejoin the circuit when instructed to do so by an official with a green flag or a green light. The pit lane will be opened for 10 seconds after the last machine in line behind the “Safety Car” has passed. The pit lane exit will then be closed until the next lap. • During the last lap of the neutralisation, all flag points should show a number board with a single digit “0” on it when instructed. The “Safety Car” will extinguish its red roof lights and exit the track into the pit lane. • When the “Safety Car” has left the track, overtaking is forbidden up to the start line, where a green flag will be displayed. The red flag with a white diagonal red cross will then immediately be withdrawn from all marshals‟ posts. The exit of the pit lane will be permanently opened and the race will continue normally • Each lap completed behind the “Safety Car” will be counted as a “race lap”.
For the BSB class only (at venues with a lap length of less than -2.5 miles), the following also applies:
• In the event of a race being neutralised at any point after the race leader has completed two thirds (rounded down) of the original race distance, the first three laps of the “safety car” deployment will not count as a “racing lap”. At the point it is decided to pull in the “safety car”, the new number of laps to complete the race will be displayed on the timing screens to advise the teams. A board or digital display will also be shown to the riders at the start/finish line to count down the final five laps of the race.
7. KILO CODES
Any radio communication that includes a casualty‟s condition MUST be relayed using the “Kilo Code”. This is an internal working code and should not be disclosed.
Kilo One Dead, not certified Kilo Two Dead, certified Kilo Three Maternity/Abortion Kilo Four Overdose Kilo Five Multiple injuries Kilo Six Serious heart condition Kilo Seven Mental illness Kilo Eight Asphyxia Kilo Nine Unconscious Kilo One-Zero Burn Kilo One-One Haemorrhage Kilo One-Two Infectious Kilo One-Three Life threatening/immediate assistance required Kilo One-Four Abrasions/bruising Kilo One-Five Limb fractures Kilo One-Six Internal injuries Kilo One-Seven Head injuries Kilo One-Eight Spinal injuries Kilo One-Nin No apparent injuries Kilo Two-Zero Ambulance after race/practice session Kilo Yellow short Short intervention Kilo Yellow long Long intervention Kilo White Request Medical Car or Ambulance Kilo Red Request race or practice session stopped Kilo Green All clear following Kilo Yellow or White Kilo Three-Seven Machine has crossed first line of protection Kilo Seven-Seven Major off track emergency with casualties
8. MEDICAL CHASE CAR
A Safety Car will follow behind the motorcycles for the whole of the final warm up lap and the first racing lap. A Medical Officer will be assigned to the Safety Car which follows the first racing lap. In the event of an accident during the first racing lap the Safety Car does not stop unless instructed by the Race Director. In this situation the Medical Officer must know that for safety reasons, once he is out of the car, the Safety Car must immediately leave the scene and park in a safe place (previously defined); therefore this Medical Officer must get out of the Safety Car and take the medical equipment with him. The Medical Officer will remain in a marshal post close to the incident location if he cannot be picked up via a service road. In the event of further medical assistance being required then this would be provided by a fully equipped Medical Car, requested and dispatched using the procedures previously described. A briefing with the Safety Car driver, Medical Officer, the Race Director and the CMO will be held prior to race day to settle every detail regarding this procedure.
9. KILO RED (TECHNICAL)
There are occasions when it is not possible to continue a practice session or race even when an incident does not result in injury. Generally, this is as a result of track surface contamination or damage to trackside furniture.
In these situations, the section Incident officer requests “kilo red technical” followed by an indication of the reason e.g. oil contamination following an engine failure.
For track contamination, the following procedure should be adopted:
• Race Control will instruct all points to show red flags / lights • A Safety Car will be dispatched to perform an on scene assessment of equipment required • When all bikes have passed, the Sector IO should place marshals at the beginning and end of the contaminated area, to indicate the approximate length and width of the contamination. This will assist with the decision to dispatch recovery units with chemical treatment solutions and air blowers, jet-wash equipment or the circuit sweeper lorry • The Section IO should direct the marshals manual intervention until the arrival of support vehicles if requested • The movements of support vehicles should be coordinated to complement the efforts of the marshals by both the section IO and chief IO • The Chief IO and Section IO should maintain radio communication with race control and provide regular updates of progress and estimated time to completion. • All equipment and personnel should be directed to a place of safety and the Safety Car should be the last vehicle to leave the circuit, indicating the circuit is ready for the event to continue.
The response to other technical issues will be decided according to the advice of the Section IO, Chief IO and Safety Car driver
10. KILO SEVEN - SEVEN (MAJOR OFF TRACK EMERGENCY)
At major sporting events there is always the possibility of a major off track emergency, such as, a bike hitting and injuring spectators, fire, explosion, collapse of building or grandstand etc. In these situations there would be an urgent need for Race Control to be made aware of this situation. The following protocol has been established where in the event of such an occurrence, Race Control can immediately be made aware, by the section incident officer transmitting "Kilo Seven Seven. This message might also be combined with another message e.g. Kilo Three Seven, Kilo Seven Seven, where for instance a bike has crossed into a spectator area with resultant casualties. This alerts Race Control there is a major off track emergency that will almost certainly involve casualties and require additional resources and may require the Race Director to initiate the circuit major incident plan.
• A Kilo Seven Seven message DOES NOT mean a red flag situation and Race Control will decide upon the best course of action.

Any infringement of this rule will result in the rider being disqualified from the remainder of the practice session or race and may result in further penalties.
In the event of a practice or race being interrupted by a red flag, any crashed machines will be recovered and taken to Technical Control and released to the Team for repair. Once the repaired machine has been re-inspected and cleared by a Technical Official a rider may continue in the restarted practice or race. In the case of the second part of an interrupted race this only applies to riders classified in the result of the first part.
EXCEPTIONS: In the BSB (Superbike) and BSS (Supersport) classes only, in the event of a rider falling from their machine during any of the free and qualifying practices, and any of the sighting laps or warm up lap(s) and provided the machine has made negligible contact with the ground or a barrier, it may be possible for the rider to remount and continue back to the pit lane, PROVIDED that the following procedure is respected.
1. After the crash, and before continuing, the machine must be inspected by the marshals, including the chief marshal of the section who will make a determination and report the situation by radio to Race Control.
2. Subject to approval being granted by Race Control, who will take into account the report of the marshal, the location of the incident, the closest available track exit and distance to the pit lane and any risk to disrupting the practice session or delay to the start of race – the rider may remount and continue around the circuit and a) during practice sessions leave the circuit at an exit or the pit lane as directed by the marshals, following the instructions of Race Control or, b) during sighting or warm up laps, enter the pit lane, keeping off of the racing line. In this situation riders must take great care, not hinder other riders and strictly observe blue flags.
3. Once the rider has reached the pit lane/pit box, further repairs may be carried out under the supervision of a technical official. Once cleared by technical control the rider may exit the pit lane to continue the practice session or the sighting laps period if still in progress, or else in the case of a race, start the warm up lap from the pit lane in which case the rider will start the race from the back of
Final Instructions v1 – Brands Hatch GP 12.13.14 October 2018 – Page 7 of 9 the grid, or start the race from the pit lane exit. The last option to start the race from the pit lane exit expires when the leader crosses the finish line to complete the first racing lap.
4. The decision of Race Control and instructions of the marshals is final. Penalties will be imposed for disregarding these and any actions that prejudice safety or the start procedure.
Brands Hatch venue specific information:
Further comments: a) In the Superbike free practice one only, in the event of no fallers or technical retirements the session will run uninterrupted, save for red flag situations.
b) If, five minutes before 50% point of the duration of the session there are machines that require recovering via the circuit the Race Director will advise (via the timing screens and teams radio) that he will interrupt the session by display of red flag at the 50% point. The machines will be then be recovered to Technical Control and the session restarted as soon as possible, lost time will not be added to the total session duration.
c) If the session has been interrupted by the red flag prior to the 50% point in the session the session will not be further interrupted by the method described in (b) above.
