New CCTV system installed at Brands Hatch circuit to enforce UK track-limits rules

A new high-end CCTV system has been installed at the Brands Hatch motor racing circuit near Swanley in Kent, England, prepares for its first test of the new UK track-limits rules.

According to a news report from the motorsport media, the circuit’s owners have decided to have this technology installed in order to help enforce the revised regulation, which enables drivers to use the asphalt up to and including the white line, and the full extent of any kerbs.

The new system,will use pressure sensors to detect when a car goes off beyond exit kerbs and trigger video footage from a high-resolution camera.

This will take two pictures – a zoomed-in image to show the wheel’s proximity to the kerb and a wide image to show if there were other factors in the car running wide – that will then be displayed on dedicated screens in race control for cases to be judged.
