I'm surprised that this still gets through the licencing dept.

H 10.1.1 says, about Car, Truck and Kart racing licences that the applicant must pass "a Medical Examination by their General Practitioner (GP)". Further references in the regs are to the "GP", meaning not Dr.A.N.Other but that person's own GP. The MSA must have written these regs in that way to avoid the unscrupulous or those mad-keen to keep racing, lying or just not telling a paddock doc about illnesses that could ban them, for good reason, that the GP would know about.

It protects other drivers and the sport, so why do they not enforce it?
