Antoine Griezmann raises driver awareness of the risk of fatigue at the wheel across the entire VINCI Autoroutes network as part of the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) #3500LIVES campaign, in partnership with JCDecaux

Despite the fact that fatigue at the wheel is the leading cause of motorway fatalities, nearly three of every four European drivers (74%) fail to comply with the recommendation that they take a break every two hours during the journey[1]. With the holiday period set to get under way, the VINCI Autoroutes Foundation for Responsible Driving and the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) and its Member Clubs are joining forces to conduct a broad-based campaign to combat fatigue at the wheel throughout the summer. The awareness message, supported by Antoine Griezmann, will be posted in French and English at all rest and service areas on the VINCI Autoroutes network. An awareness message about the risk of texting at the wheel, supported by Pharrell Williams, and a recommendation to use child safety seats, supported by Michelle Yeoh, round out the campaign, which will reach more than 870 signs in more than 300 rest areas.

Know when to stop before falling asleep...

From 7 July to 31 August 2017, the "Faites une pause en cas de fatigue / Stop when you’re tired" safety message supported by Antoine Griezmann as part of the worldwide #3500LIVES[2] road safety campaign will be posted in French and English at all rest and service areas on the VINCI Autoroutes network. In it, the France national football team and Atlético Madrid forward reminds drivers of the importance of taking regular breaks to prevent fatigue at the wheel, at a time when they stop, on average, every 3 hours and 14 minutes rather than the recommended 2 hours.

Bernadette Moreau, General Delegate of the VINCI Autoroutes Foundation, draws attention to the fact that simple steps can be taken to combat driver fatigue: get a full night's sleep before setting off, unlike 81% of European drivers, who go to bed later or get up earlier than usual before setting out on a long trip; take a break every two hours, a recommendation that 74% of European drivers[1] fail to follow; lastly, watch for the first signs of fatigue, which are a sign that you should stop in a safe place as soon as possible. "Contrary to what is widely believed, there is no alternative to taking a break. There is, for example, no point in listening to music or – worse – talking on the telephone to try to stay awake. The only effective way to combat fatigue, which is physiological, is to sleep. That is why it is so important for drivers to get in the habit of taking a nap."

FIA President Jean Todt welcomes the partnership with the VINCI Autoroutes Foundation. "Over the summer holiday during the weeks and months to come, millions of drivers across the country will be travelling long distances on the road. I am delighted that the VINCI Autoroutes Foundation is supporting our new road safety campaign which aims at raising awareness of the FIA’s Golden Rules for Safer Motoring. It is important to remind road users of the risks related to fatigue at the wheel and the necessity to include regular rest stops as part of their journey."

To enable drivers to adopt the best practice, the VINCI Autoroutes Foundation makes "nap spaces" available every weekend during the summer months to encourage them to take a restful break.

Sweden’s Johan Kristoffersson has produced another dominant display in the FIA World Rallycross Championship after winning today’s World RX of Canada, round eight of the World Championship.  The victory is Kristoffersson’s third event win in a row – and fourth of the season – and has seen the Swede extend his lead at the top of the driver standings by 35 points.  It is also the first time in World RX history that a driver has finished on the podium in seven consecutive events.

Two-time World RX Champion Petter Solberg finished runner-up, making it a one-two for PSRX Volkswagen Sweden this weekend. Team Peugeot-Hansen’s Sebastien Loeb took the third podium spot.  EKS driver Topi Heikkinen is the only driver to have reached every Canadian final since it was introduced to the World Championship in 2014.  He was awarded the Monster Energy Super Charge Award following his rapid launch on the start of today’s final but was denied a podium spot due to a slow puncture.

Canada RX winner Kristoffersson credited his team in the end of event press conference. “This win is definitely a team effort, they really deserve it as they work so hard.  We had very tricky conditions and yesterday was so wet - for the team to deliver a car that is both consistent with the launches and out on the track is a huge credit to the them. Obviously I’d love to make the podium on every event this year but I don’t like to take risks - the biggest and most important trophy is the one at the end of the year so I need to focus on that. I’m very happy to take 30 points this weekend and I will continue to try to do so but without taking risks.”

Runner-up Solberg added: “The weekend has been very good - both of us have performed well and we’re now leading the teams’ standings by over 100 points. Of course, we want to win every qualifying session but sometimes you need to settle for a position further down to ensure we make it to the semi-finals.  We have a good team plan of how to work together and for the team championship - that is always the main goal.”

Loeb – who finished on the podium for the third time in a row – added: “The performance of the car was very good but the VW Polo Supercar and the driver performance is very impressive.  Things are going well for us but we still need to do better.  We had a difficult day yesterday – I hit Andreas [Bakkerud] in Q2 and in Q1 I had some complications.  I had a tough fight in the semi-finals and maybe we could have been second if I had taken the Joker Lap later but this is a good result for the team and I hope I can make it a fourth podium when I go to my home event next month.”

MJP Racing Team Austria’s Kevin Eriksson had another solid weekend in his Ford Fiesta RX Supercar finishing fourth, one spot ahead of Heikkinen.  Team Peugeot-Hansen’s Timmy Hansen finished sixth after the Swede retired from the final on the penultimate lap due to a technical issue with his car. Reigning Champion Mattias Ekstrom ended the seventh overall after the Swede suffered from a clutch problem which dropped him to the back of his semi-final.  Meanwhile temperature problems denied Janis Baumanis a spot in the final and the Latvian STARD driver finished in eighth place. Elsewhere Hoonigan Racing Division’s Ken Block finished ninth with Kevin Hansen rounding out the top ten.  

In the RX2 International Series presented by Cooper Tires, it was Frenchman Cyril Raymond who returned to the top of the podium after a lights-to-flag victory in today’s final. Belgium’s Guillaume De Ridder finished second, while American Tanner Whitten took the third podium spot.  Great Britain’s Dan Rooke was leading overnight but a collision caused the 20-year-old to retire from the final.  In the overall RX2 standings, Raymond now leads Rooke by 14 points.

Raymond concluded: “Two years ago it was my first RX2 experience in Canada where I finished second so I had some good memories here.  I want to thank my team for everything they have done – it was very wet yesterday but I like these conditions as it means we have to adapt and everyone is in the same position. Sixty points still up for grabs but I have a good gap, it will be very hard in Loheac as I will have a lot of pressure being my home race. For sure, it will be a big battle with Dan [Rooke].

Paul Bellamy, World RX Managing Director for IMG, concluded: “We’re now only three rounds away from our season-closer in Cape Town and the battle for this year’s title is still very much open.  Johan [Kristoffersson] may have extended his lead but with 120 points still available this season, it’s still possible for a number of drivers to walk away as the 2017 World RX Champion.  I would also like to say thank you to our GP3R organisers and volunteers for all their hard work in the poor weather conditions to put on this weekend’s motorsport festival. It was an honour to have Nicolas Hamilton onsite too, and was great to have him as a guest commentator on our World RX TV today – we hope he can return to rallycross soon, and next time as a competitor. Now we have a few weeks break before a busy September where we visit France, Latvia and Germany ahead of the final race in South Africa (10-12 November).”

On 1 August 2017, the 19^th Congress of Americas for Mobility and Sport started in Toronto, Ontario, with representatives from Members Clubs throughout the Americas present.

FIA President Jean Todt opened the Congress by highlighting the importance of the event: “The annual congress is fundamental. I especially appreciate the opportunity it provides for me to meet you and to hear about the news and progress of your clubs, as well as the opportunity it gives us to think together about the future of motorsport and mobility.”

Mr. Todt thanked the Canadian Automobile Association (CAA), and Mr. Tim Shearman, President of the CAA, also FIA President of Region III, for hosting the Congress of the Americas this year. He also thanked Mr. Jorge Tomasi, FIA President of Region IV; Mr. José Abed, FIA Vice-President for Sport and President of FIA Americas and OMDAI; and Mr. Carlos Garcia Remohi, President of CODASUR, for their work to promote motor sport and mobility in the Americas. Mr. Todt acknowledged the presence of Mr. Graham Stoker, FIA Deputy President for Sport, and Mr. Nick Craw, President of the FIA Senate, and thanked Mr. Hugo Mersan, President of TACPy and FIA Vice-President for Sport, for the successful experience of the Congress in Paraguay last year.

Mr. Todt then laid out the agenda for the sport and mobility portions of the Congress.

On the sport side, Mr. Todt spoke about the significant progress the region made in the development of motor sport: “I am proud to say that the region welcomes 10 World Championships events including four Formula One events; 2 FIA World Endurance Championship events; two FIA World Rally Championship events; one FIA World Touring Car Championship event and one FIA World Rallycross Championship event which is going to be held in Canada after this Congress. In the FIA Formula E Championship, the region is also impressively active with four events this year”. Mr. Todt emphasized that the FIA team is available to provide support to promote the growth of motor sport in the region, and also spoke about the importance of road safety in motor sport. He also encouraged Clubs from the Americas to apply for more grant funding opportunities via the FIA Sport Grant Programme.

Speaking about the mobility section, Mr. Todt highlighted 3 key topics for the congress. These included: strengthening club development through the FIA University Programme, promoting the road safety agenda to meet the ambitious 2020 targets set out by the UN SDGs, and advancing the agenda of sustainable mobility.  Mr. Todt then announced the appointment of Mr. Tim Shearman, FIA President of Region III and Alfredo Albornoz, Director General from TACC, Colombia, to the FIA University Governance board to represent their respective regions. He also announced a new Senior Executive Programme, designed in partnership with Columbia University in New York, which will be held on 1-3 November 2017.

On the topic of Road Safety, Mr. Todt highlighted the ongoing initiatives of the FIA High Level Panel for Road Safety, and invited FIA Regional Presidents to join the next meeting of the Panel on 20 September 2017. He also congratulated the Clubs on their current road safety initiatives and reasserted the key role they have to play that field: “I am proud of the outstanding work done by the Clubs and regions on the ground since the inception of the FIA Road Safety Grant Programme. As you know, I strongly believe, and I am sure you will agree, that motor sport, mobility and road safety walk together.”

Mr. Todt then spoke about the FIA Smart Cities Forum, held alongside the FIA Formula E Championship. “Meeting the challenge of urbanisation is of central importance to FIA Clubs and this platform is a good opportunity for us to promote our agenda on safe, sustainable and accessible mobility in cities”, he stated.

The Congress, which will last until 3 August 2017, is an opportunity for the creation of joint initiatives between Clubs. It will end with a Karting Slalom event for children who are 10 years of age or higher, an event that highlights the importance the FIA places on attracting new talent to motor sport at a young age.

The next edition of the FIA Congress of Americas for Mobility and Sport will be held on 22-24 July 2018 in Montevideo, Uruguay, just prior to the FIA Mobility Conference on 24-27 July 2018.

An estimated 1,3 million people are killed each year on the roads worldwide and 50 million injured. That corresponds to 3,000 fatalities every day, including 500 children: an unacceptable human, economic and social cost for our societies.

To combat this, the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile has created the FIA Action for Road Safety campaign, employed the UN’s Safe System Approach and strengthened cooperation with motoring and sporting member clubs via the deployment of the FIA Road Safety Grant Programme.

In May 2011, when the United Nations launched the UN Decade of Action for Road Safety with a goal to save five million lives and reduce road-related injuries by 50 million worldwide over the next 10 years, the FIA created the Action for Road Safetycampaign. This campaign supports the UN initiative through its global network of motoring and touring clubs and its involvement with motor sports. The FIA Foundation welcomed this initiative and agreed to fund the FIA Strategic Road Safety Programme with an endowment of one million euros per annum.

To further tackle this global crisis, the FIA actively supports the United Nations Decade of Action for Road Safety 2011-2020, calling on governments at a national and international level to embrace the Safe System Approach and promote action on capacity building, safe drivers, safer vehicles, safer infrastructure and post-crash response.

The efforts of the FIA in these fields are complemented by the activities of the FIA’s motoring clubs, which have become leading voices for road safety in their respective countries, encouraging governments to make road safety a national priority.

The FIA Road Safety Grant Programme supported by the FIA Foundation welcomes initiatives from FIA member clubs in promoting concrete actions in the five main areas of the UN Decade of Action global plan. Since 2012, the Grant Programme has awarded over 230 innovative initiatives in more than 75 countries. These projects cover several activities such as awareness campaigns, educational programmes, trainings or researches on a wide range of topics, among them, child safety, post-crash care, distracted driving or vulnerable road users’ protection.

For any further information about the FIA Road Safety Grant Programme, please contact Priscilla Le Lièvre Grants Coordinator (plelievre@fia.com).

THE SAFE SYSTEM APPROACH:

CAPACITY BUILDING

In its role of observer at the UN Economic Commission for Europe/ Geneva (UNECE) the FIA is actively supporting the work of the Working Party on Road Traffic Safety (WP.1), the only permanent body in the United Nations system that focuses on improving road safety globally.

With the view of facilitating international cooperation and strengthening global coordination with UN agencies and other international stakeholders working on road safety, the FIA is an active member of the UN Road Safety Collaboration (UNRSC).

The FIA is contributing to the work of IRTAD,  the International Road Traffic and Accident Database, established at OECD as a mechanism for providing an aggregated database in which international accident and exposure data are collected on a continuous basis.

As a global campaigner the FIA plays  a leading role in promoting awareness and responsibility not only among motorists, but all road users through education, campaign  and information. Campaigns are aimed at encouraging safe driving practices as well as lifelong learning and training, targeting the different risk groups.

SAFE DRIVERS

As a global campaigner the FIA plays  a leading role in promoting awareness and responsibility not only among motorists, but all road users through education, campaign  and information. Campaigns (link to sessions “campaigns”) are aimed at encouraging safe driving practices as well as lifelong learning and training, targeting the different risk groups.

SAFER VEHICLES

The FIA promotes vehicle design that protects the driver and the occupants as well as vulnerable users. Cofounder and member of the EuroNCAP programme, the FIA and its member clubs cooperate with other CAPs globally to improve vehicle safety and to provide consumers with an independent assessment of the safety performance of their vehicles.

Member of the UNECE World Forum for Harmonization of Vehicle Regulations (WP.29), the worldwide regulatory forum related to safety and environmental aspects of the vehicles. 

As new technologies are creating greater opportunities for road safety with more intelligent systems being developed for road vehicles, the FIA is fully committed to encouraging the deployment of the most promising active safety solutions to improve road safety.

SAFE INFRASTRUCTURE

Safer road infrastructure is a key element of effective strategies to reduce the rising trend of road fatalities. The FIA and its members started and continue to support the iRAP program, operating in more than 70 countries, in partnership with governments and non-government organisations to inspect high-risk roads and develop star ratings and safer road investment plans.

POST-CRASH INTERVENTIONS

Prompt, good-quality first aid can save the lives of many people injured in road traffic crashes.

Building on the established cooperation with the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), the world's largest humanitarian network, the FIA promotes initiatives in regions of the world aimed at raising the awareness of the importance of first aid knowledge in giving immediate assistance to victims of road accidents.

The first race of the double-header finale to the 2016/17 FIA Formula E Championship season was full of excitement and drama, as the two title protagonists, Sebastien Buemi and Lucas di Grassi had very different race days.

Renault e.dams’ Buemi came into the event with a ten-point advantage over his Abt Schaeffler Audi Sport despite having missed the last race in New York City, however his day didn’t begin well with a heavy crash in the second free practice session. As a result of the incident, the team was forced to change the battery, landing the reigning champion with a ten-place grid penalty meaning he would start in 12^th.

Di Grassi, meanwhile, had a faultless morning, setting the fastest time in the first practice session and then putting his car on pole position to secure what could be three vital championship points.

As the lights went out, the Brazilian covered off a fast-starting Stephan Sarrazin, with the Techeetah car slotting into second place. From that point on di Grassi progressively pulled away from the field, while further down the order, Buemi was putting in an impressive comeback drive despite contact on the opening lap resulting in damage to his car.
