International Sporting Code
The International Sporting Code (ISC ) tracks the conditions of motor sport. The ISG FIA International Sporting Code official name, is in 17 chapters and several appendices from the frame of the automobile sport. It is known worldwide as part of the FIA rules and regulations for automobile racing, if it is not organized independently of the FIA, such as NASCAR in the United States. In Motorcycle Racing FIM defines these guidelines in karting the CIK is in charge here.
The name of the rule is misleading. This is according to the laws of Germany not a law in the formal sense, because it was not issued by a public authority.
Applicable versions
The original texts of the FIA and FIM are mostly available in English and / or French. The national sport organizations and institutions provide the appropriate translations in the languages available. In case of differences between the original texts and the translations ultimately the English or French version is always valid.
