I have been in at least one situation where I did not hear someone cheering for me in a competition and only knew about it later. The same could apply here; the drivers may just zone out everything except needed information. In fact, it is quite probable that even if you do try to communicate with them, they will ignore you to do what they need to do.
Sounds good. But under the old rules there was no distinction, so you could not apply it. I think that that is opening a whole new can of worms, because then everyone will be talkin' bout what is "pre-arranged"
