  Shakey Byrne Court Case
Posted by: Hammy - 19-12-2024, 11:48 AM - Forum: Other Race Meetings - MotoGP, WSB & BSB, Irish Roads etc - - Replies (5)

Byrne has won his court case against MSV claiming tyre barriers were the cause of his injuries and Air Fencing should have been in place, the judge agreed and awarded case to Byrne, assume this will be a costly settlement. Can see this might have repercussions regarding other race/road circuit events using straw bales etc. with insurance companies insisting on Air Fencing everywhere.
