Experiences & Outlook
• In 2011 Maiken Rasmussen finished the season as a junior driver on
place 17 out of 21 drivers. At Oschersleben, a track she knew very well
from the selection and test days she collected the most points by finishing
8th and 14th place.
• After 5 out of 10 races Michelle Gatting is on place 14 in the overall
ranking in 2012. She is a promissing young female talent that is learnig
and addapting very fast.
• Both drivers would do even better if they would have a chance to drive a
second year in this touring car series.
Concept change under consideration
• The Volkswagen Scirocco R-Cup is a professional race series with many
talented drivers. It is a perfect platform for young female drivers to develop
their skills on and of the track.
We are looking forward to continue and improve the cooparation

“Now that Speedweeks is over for us I wanted to take a minute and say THANKS for bringing your exhibit to us at the Daytona 500 Experience. It has been such a great addition and all of our groups have really enjoyed it. The feedback has been amazing. What is so great about it is that, I think, the exhibit has really opened the eyes of a lot of people. What I noticed is that, from the die-hard race fan to the regular guest who has no knowledge of racing, they had no idea that women in racing started as far back as the 1900’s and now they have been exposed and educated to this which is a plus for women in sports.”
Lisa Shavatt
Director of Sales and Marketing The Daytona 500 Experience

• FREE LEGAL AID IN CROATIAN JUDICIARY FOR ALL ACTIVE DRIVER OR OFFICIALS
TO RAISE NUMBER OF WOMEN IN HIGH OFFICIALS ROLES
Members of the ASN Board: 0 women / 16 men
Members of 14 different commissions in auto sport:
2 women /13 men
Members of 10 different commissions in karting sport:
2 women / 14 men
Chairman of the Stewards at the auto sport Events in 2012:
9 women & 14 men at 31 event
Officials’ trainers in 2012: 0 woman / 13 men
ASN delegates at Events: 0 woman at 30 Events
Full time employed women in CCKF: 2 women / 1 men
DISCRIMINATION or MOTIVATION in CLASSIFICATION?
Problem: prizes and special results for women taken out of total race results can be motivating for one, and discriminating for other women as they feel equal to men
Research: to detect which of those two groups are larger
Premise: for majority of women special scoring was motivating in the past, but nowadays with women’s emancipation and independence this could be changed
Activity: to change CCKF result regulations
MOTHERS IN MOTORSPORT
Problem: Mothers are those who often don't encourage and support their children in motorsport races, even though they are themselves former drivers.
Research: to detect all the reasons why they don't support their activity in motorsport (both as driver or marshal)
Premise: they don't support their children because of the safety precautions, but we believe there can be other reasons such as unnecessary waste of money, opinion about motorsport as immature behavior, lack of time to spend or something else
Activities after findings: depend on findings but will be directed towards each specific problem.
Activities after findings: depend on findings but will be directed towards each specific problem.
Ex 1. if the problem is safety concern – we will organize a meeting at the first day of event to inform them and show them all the aspects of safety that are carefully followed at the Event
Ex. 2. If the problem is poor education because of the trainings and races, out ASN will make a program that will monitor and help active drivers not to neglect their school and obligations
Ex. 3 If the problem is lack of time for free time activities with their children, we should present Events as family oriented and if they are not interested in motorsport we can organize mothers community at the Events so the meet and introduce each other which will make them closer to motorsport even though they don't like it
Evaluation:
award for CCKF Mother of the year!!! criteria: perfect mothers are:
Mothers as role models !
Mothers who are active and lead a healthy lifestyle
are role models for their children. Their desire to keep
moving and be involved in sport and physical activity
motivates their children to do the same.
FREE LEGAL AID IN CROATIAN JUDICIARY FOR ALL ACTIVE DRIVER OR OFFICIALS
Criteria: at least one run race or one officials/marshals work on Event in previous year!

THE FIA CAMPAIGN: ACTION FOR ROAD SAFETY
• Motorsport - Using events as communication platforms and drivers as ambassadors, motorsport offers a unique means to spread message of responsible driving behaviour in a very powerful manner.
• The National Coordinators can help drive those messages too.
• FIA Motoring and Touring Clubs draw on a great depth of experience in road safety related activities: educational and technical development programmes, field research and public awareness campaigns, the operation of roadside breakdown services as well as driver training centers.

Michelin became an official partner of the FIA’s Action for Road Safety campaign in 2011. The partnership between the FIA and Michelin has two major objectives: - To inform the public about the importance of road safety through a series of events focusing on educating drivers on the golden rules for safer motoring as well as general road safety. - To cooperate with automobile clubs and Michelin operations around the world to spread the message of safer motoring and to reach about 900 million vehicle owners.
• On June 9, 2011, the CAA and the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) joined forces to raise public awareness of the risks of texting while driving.
• The event marked the Canadian launch of the United Nations Decade of Action for Road Safety. For the occasion, Formula One drivers Michael Schumacher and Felipe Massa climbed into the CAA driving simulator to show that even for the world’s best drivers, texting while at the wheel is risky business.
• A few minutes after entering the simulator, Schumacher had an “accident” while texting.
• Massa, meanwhile, committed three traffic violations while using a cellular device.

In joining the FIA Action for Road Safety campaign, Schuberth hopes to contribute to changing current opinions and to encourage helmet use. By campaigning for motorcyclists to wear helmets Schuberth will increase awareness of the FIA’s campaign and the importance of properly protecting the most important part of the body – the head.
