New E.U. Insurance Rules Could Ban All Motorsport

By info@topspeed.com (Kirby)
Can you imagine a world where all forms of motorsport become illegal in Europe? That could happen if the European Motor Insurance Directive isnt amended to change stipulations that require all cars to be fully insured. New proposals to amend the MID are currently under review by the European Commission. If the amendments pass without any changes to the specific phrasing to the text, motor racing of any kind, be it Formula One, rally racing, and even go-kart racing, will become illegal. Its hard to imagine a world where Formula One racing is illegal in Europe, but it could happen if the amendments dont include the stipulations that will allow the entire industry to operate legally within the Unions laws. A vote is set to take place in December in the European Parliament and the Council of Ministers.
