Is it a mere touch that DQs you or is it real help such as a push?

i think the marshalls are allowed to push the car when it stucks in the sand for example

Now that would definitely DQ you. It's OK to do it just to extract yourself and get it to the garage, but your race is over.

Wasn't it that you can have the marshalls push you out of a danger zone and if you're able to continue, you're allowed to finish the race? At least, that was the case with MS. Did this change?

a driver is only DQ if a marshall pushes the vihicle and it restarts, unless of course your name is Schumacher...... :shock:

if the car is pushed from what is judged to be a dangerous position, (i.e. beached on kerb) then the driver may continue wether it restarts or not. If the car is judged to be out of harms way (i.e. on the edge of the back of the gravel) then it is judged to be out of the race and will be black flagged if the driver continues. ultimately it's upto the race stewards.

Ok then, here's an example, if Albers moved over to the side of the track like he did last weekend with fuel hose trailing. Could he rejoin if a marshal removed the hose? Or is that not allowed?
