Pit Lane Starters Procedure at Formation Lap End

In Simple Terms

Cars that start from the pit lane must return to the pit lane at a steady speed with constant throttle after the formation lap(s). They then line up in the fast lane in the order they arrived, with their engines still running, ready to start the race.

• Pit lane starters must maintain constant speed and constant throttle when returning to pit lane
• Cars must stop in the fast lane in order of arrival
• Engines must remain running while lined up in the fast lane
• This procedure occurs at the end of the formation lap(s) before the race start
