Develop a safety plan for rally events
Safety
KNAF aimed to develop a safety plan to set standards at its rally events, which would involve implementing new software, providing education courses, safety materials and communication plans, as well as new guidelines for marshals and ‘STAR’ officials. After conducting research for the new project, KNAF planned to provide new training for motor sport personnel, which would be offered to approximately 50-80 course car crew members, approximately 50 ‘STAR’ officials and 8-10 safety officers from rally organisations affiliated with KNAF. The success of the activity was to be measured by the standard of the new guidelines and educational plans, and the safety training courses material that was to be produced.

Train instructors for race and rally schools
Safety
KNAF aimed to train and certify 100 instructors for approved race and rally schools, which would tackle issues such as fair play, positive coaching, good behaviour, safety, anti-doping and sexual intimidation. The organisation also planned to research the use of Heart Rate Variability (HRV) in elite level drivers. The success of the initiative was to be measured by the amount of organised training that took place and the number of certified instructors and trainers it produced. The number of tested drivers and a report that was to be produced would measure the success of the HRV measurements.
