Please, let's not confuse this with the people who drive around in circles in large groups, unable to make right hand turns. That has nothing to do with motorsports or road racing. A road course (anywhere on the planet besides the US) is a challenging drive of 3 to 5 miles, with 10 to 20 turns. It requires some talent and skill to negotiate both left & right hand turns, heavy braking, and speeds that fluctuate from 40mph to 170 mph many times in a single lap. This whole exercise would be easier if bumping or tapping your fellow driver was acceptable. Turns out that not doing this, is recognized as part of the aforementioned "skill", and being "unskillful" in this area, will make it "difficult" to be involved in future events.
