General Principles & Provisions - Circuit Usage

In Simple Terms

Once the final practice session ends, teams cannot use the circuit for testing or other activities until the next competition begins. The same restriction applies after a Sprint race. On Race day, the circuit is off-limits until one hour before the pit lane officially opens for the race.

• Circuit is closed to all traffic after final practice session until next competition
• Circuit is closed to all traffic after Sprint race until next competition
• On Race day, circuit remains closed until one hour before pit lane opening
• This rule prevents unauthorized track usage and ensures fair competition conditions
