Rules question (unusual case)

[rwh]

Sorry. old rule book.

6-8-5 in current form adds: This Rule does not apply to Road Racing; refer rule 22-1a.

Can't find 22-1a but the 'park it' rule:

22-1-1 If during practice or racing a competitors machine malfunctions or becomes disabled for any reason and the competitor is unable to continue racing s/he must hold their line until it is safe to move as quickly and as safely as possible from the track. The machine must be parked as far from the track as practical and the rider should move to the safest available position.

So you can (have to) keep pushing, straight ahead (on your line) if it's not safe to park it

IIRC Manfeild has big concrete walls both sides, so parking would indeed be difficult?

All I can imagine is watching someone struggling to push his bike accross the finish line while 4 guys fighting for third place are hitting the apex coming out of Dunlop. What happens if one of them is watching the guy next to him and not what is happening on the finish line?
