I'm speaking as a marshal, so forgive me if I miss the point entirely, but I can't see a problem with a reduction in ticket allocations. From what I've seen of club racing, the average "team" appears to consist of either:
The driver and his mechanic
0r
The driver, his wife and kids, his mechanic, his mechanics missus, the mechanics mate and a dog.
In the latter case, that's a lot of people not contributing to the revenue of the meeting, whilst not actually filling any other worthwhile function either. During my short-lived attempt at a stock car racing career, the general rule was the driver and one mechanic got in free, and everyone else paid whether they were part of a team or not, and that didn't seem to discourage mates and family members from attending. I think there's a certain amount of complaining for the sake of it going on here. I do agree the press accreditation thing is daft though.
