FIA Safety Delegate, Charlie Whiting, has given the Durban street circuit the green light after completing his safety inspection this morning. This was after the final safety barriers were put in place and all the roads were closed.
Due to the nature of temporary race circuits, an FIA licence can only be issued immediately prior to the race when all the work is finished. Charlie gave the organisers a list of FIA requirements when he did his preliminary inspection last week and so returned to make sure these had all been implemented.
