Silverlake C1 Endurance Series – SAFETY CAR PIT STOP TIME

C1 RACING SERIES – SAFETY CAR PIT STOP TIME

In accordance with Article 2.8.4 of the series regulations, the minimum mandatory pit stop time under safety car conditions will be 6 minutes, timed from the PIT IN to PIT OUT timing lines.

Article 2.8.4
While the safety car is in operation competing cars may stop in their pits. However, for races of six hours duration or less, any pit stop made under safety car conditions (i.e. where a car crosses the pit entry line when Safety Car boards & flags are shown) will be subject to a minimum mandatory pit stop time. The minimum pit stop time will be published by event bulletin or supplementary regulations. The pit stop time will be counted from the PIT IN to PIT OUT timing lines. This regulation will not apply to cars already in the pit lane at the start of a safety car period. Any car failing to comply will be subject to a stop/go penalty for a time period decided by the Clerk of the Course.

C1 RACING SERIES – STOP/GO PENALTY AREA

Contrary to the Briefing Notes for this event, and in the interest of Safety and Operational Management the Stop/Go Penalty Area has now moved to the pit exit end of the pit lane, outside the pit office.
