Lotus Europa BELCAR Historic Cup Zolder 2024: Recovery after beeing overtaken during Safety Car

New Race Festival Zolder 2024;
BELCAR Historic Cup Race 2, 19th May 2024;
Car: 1969 Lotus Europa S2, 1596cc Renault Engine;
Driver: Stefan Kremer;
Finished the race 25th overall, 5 seconds behind No. 250, who overtook me and the No. 21 Mini Cooper under Safety Car condition. Did not push to attack the No. 250 Ford Escort Mk2, because I was sure the driver would receive a Drive Through or 30 Seconds Penalty. As long as he stays in sight, he would be behind me in the final result. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case.

Seems to have been a pretty obvious violation. Do you not approach the stewards after the race in this situation? In our amateur series we would and also have a nominal penalty to enforce following the rules and encourage safe racing.

I could see one of the Marshalls react to the illegal overtaking. That's why I thought, race control would take car of it and penalise the drivers. After the race, I didn't protest, because the car, which gained the advantage, was not in my class.
