If you miss the evening briefing before the trackday AND the morning briefing on the actual day itself, Darren will give you a personal briefing but that will be once he`s sorted out everyone who was there in time. You will lose some tracktime but it will be mid morning at the earliest before you get on circuit. He won`t hold up everyone else who was there in time so he can give the latecomer a briefing.

It`s the same as on a UK trackday, if you turn up late the TDO will give a second briefing once the day is underway.
That’s absolutely fair enough about the briefing, somehow I read it as if you miss the briefing you miss the day.
IME the DN system for driver registration and briefing is simple and use friendly. Barring laziness and incompetence, only a genuine disaster would prevent drivers getting registered and briefed in time to do the full day. Anyone who can't manage it is probably not the sort of person anyone else would want to be sharing a track with.

Given the DN team have plenty besides late driver briefings to occupy themselves with during the day itself, when the track is live, the process for latecomers is fair.
