Interesting article. It does include the word "scrutineering" which I found amazing. Is this F1 jargon? I haven't followed F1 since the year Nigel Mansell and Ricardo Patrasi came in 1-2 almost every race.
- NoPicklez 2y agoThe term scrutineering isn't F1 specific jargon but largely used in most forms of motorsport where the vehicle/bike is inspected to ensure it complies to a set standard. For example in another sport motocross, dirt bikes need to pass scrutineering to ensure the bikes are within specification. This often includes checking the riders gear to ensure it is safe.
- FMecha 2y agoIn American motorsports such as NASCAR, the term "tech inspection" is used for those stuff.
- _diyar 2y agoThe term 'scrutineering' arguably extends beyond adherence to technical specifications to include procedural regulations within the sport. I'm not sure if this also applies to 'tech inspection' in e.g. NASCAR.
- harry8 2y agoI've only heard it used in elections before. Each candidate will nominate scrutineers to ensure the count is valid.
