Unless they get an exclusion, all the risk is on the driver’s of the support cars. It would probably be fine, but if there is an automatic speed camera somewhere there would be problems.

But… these support cars are already following the racers for hundreds of KM, so I’m not sure what risk you are referring to.
We’re talking about a very small stretch where the speed limits are lower (for the general population during everyday driving), and I’m still not sure why this would be a problem during a planned racing event.
The article makes it seem like they can’t continue on those small stretches “because the law says you can’t go over 20mph”. Seems crazy in this context!
What about on other roads, where there are stop signs or traffic lights? Is it expected that the support vehicles along the race route would have to stop for each one? If so, the race should be completely taken out of Wales for the absurdity of it.

Yeah, that would be an inconvenience, but the local authorities would know how to remedy it.
