Rear Jack

In Simple Terms

Article 14C specifies the technical requirements for the rear jack used by F1 teams during pit stops. The jack must have proper signaling lights and cables, and its cradle must be shaped to safely interface with the car's Load Transmitting Components (LTC). This ensures safety and standardization across all teams during tire changes and repairs.

• The rear jack must include signaling lights to indicate when it's actively lifting the car
• Signal cables are required to communicate the jack's operational status
• The cradle must be specifically designed to safely engage with the car's Load Transmitting Components
• Proper jack equipment is essential for safe and efficient pit stop operations
