Article 57.1
Safety Car Deployment
Chapter: Chapter V - Safety
In Simple Terms
The Safety Car is deployed when conditions are too dangerous for racing at full speed - usually after crashes, debris on track, or bad weather. All cars must slow down and line up behind it. Racing only resumes when Race Control decides it's safe and withdraws the Safety Car.
- Deployed for track incidents or dangerous conditions
- Neutralises the race - no overtaking
- All cars must line up behind Safety Car
- Race resumes when track deemed safe
Official FIA Text
The safety car may be deployed by the Race Director when ordered by the clerk of the course if he deems it necessary to neutralise a race. This will normally be when an incident has occurred which has left damaged cars or debris on the track, or when weather conditions make racing unsafe. The safety car will circulate at the head of the field until the track is deemed safe.
