I wish to correct a major error in this story. I was the National Safety Steward at the event. I had to leave on Sunday morning to return to my practice. When I left the event on Sunday morning, the Stewards had acted on Saturday to penalize Lovel and Millen for their unsportsmanlike conduct in the service area. I wrote up the report and the incident. I left my written report with the ProRally Series Manager. I left my cell phone number just in case there were to be a protest. I was not contacted.
If it was posted, stated or in any way told that the witness of fact had retracted their statement, THIS IS A BOLD FACE LIE. I stand by my statement of fact. I can not explain the actions that lead to the reversal. I am appalled and ashamed of this action.
We should never get to the point that any Team interest is above the safety of crews, competitors and spectators. I have spent over twenty years of my life in supporting, developing and working the safey of this sport. I must admit that I have taken this actin both personally and as a poor reflection of my postion as your Safety Steward. I can only apologize for failing to protect the interest of each and every one of you.
If any of you have constructive suggestions of how to correct this type of situation for the future, I urge you to contact the PRB. Make them aware of how you feel and what you want. The guys are hard working and want to give you a sport to proud of. They are not your enemies.
Again, the only reason I am responding to this forum is I want the truth to be known and the truth is I DID NOT RETRACT MY STATEMENT OF FACT.
