The Vice President of the CDA of the ACA identified the institution as being under scrutiny after the death of Alfredo Picardi
The death of Alfredo Picardi, which occurred last weekend after an accident on a date in the Amigos 1.4 category at the La Plata racetrack, put the Provincial Automobile and Motorcycle Commission (COPAM) in the eye of the storm. This entity is in charge of authorizing motor sport competitions on the land of Buenos Aires and at the height of the conflict between the Argentine Automobile Club (ACA) and the Asociación Corredores Turismo Carretera (ACTC), the provincial entity was affected by what happened .
Eduardo Baca, the Vice President of the Automobile Sports Commission (CDA) of the ACA, spoke on the Carburando Radio program and insisted on the situation COPAM is going through in the latest events. “COPAM has an irregular conformation because the Law that gave rise to COPAM, which is an organization of the Province of Buenos Aires that approves the powers in Buenos Aires taking into account security aspects, says that they must be represented in the entity of that table has been given sports power”.said the manager.
In the same line, he added: “A big part of building that table is powerless in sports because we took it out of the ACA. Therefore, from the moment we denounce it at every COPAM meeting, we sign the approval minutes of the races that do not agree with the irregularity of the formation of the COPAM table.”
Regarding the signing of the COPAM minutes in disagreement, Baca explained the reason why they reached that position. “We signed because within the approved list there are powers that correspond to the Federations within the CDA”, he pointed out.
Finally, the Vice President of the CDA of the ACA clarified what is the position of the entity led by Eugenio Breard after issuing a statement in the past about the field of action that categories that are outside the mother entity of national motorsport have. .
“The position of the CDA has always been to maintain the responsibilities from the point of view of the delegation of the sporting power of the FIA and compliance with the international sporting code of the local regulations. This is not a change in strategies, it is the application of a strategy that is the norm and what it should be. As a supervisory body, we are not looking for success-oriented effects but rather we are marking the regulatory field in which we must move. The statement clearly articulates that territory and covers various aspects such as licenses and road courses,” he concluded.
