The SIA Chart has the following statement - Les entrées dans l'hippodrome de 1 min 30 sont protégées

Using an online translator this translates into - Entries in the racecourse from 1 min 30 are protected

It seems to me that Jeppesen has interpreted this to mean that entries into the racetrack when the still air timing is more than 1 min 30 are not protected...................thus is places the warning on it's chart requiring aircraft below IAS 130 to enter the racetrack only via the holding.

If you think you are going to have problems with the racetrack where you are using 2 minutes, have a look at the Locator/DME approach where there is no racetrack and aircraft enter the final approach from the hold!................However again like I suggested previously remember that the hold is protected for airspeeds up to 170Kt IAS!!
