General Safety - Touching Stopped Cars

In Simple Terms

Only the driver is allowed to touch their car when it's stopped on the track, unless the car is in the paddock, garage, pit lane, or on the starting grid where team members can work on it. This rule keeps track areas safe and ensures only authorized people handle stopped vehicles.

• Only the driver may touch a stopped car on track without special permission
• Team members can freely touch and work on the car in paddock, garage, pit lane, or starting grid areas
• This rule prioritizes safety by limiting who can interact with stopped vehicles in race areas
• Any touching of a stopped car outside permitted areas requires specific authorization
