NOTE TO TEAMS: POST SPRINT PROCEDURE

The Post-Sprint interview procedure requires the top three (3) drivers to be interviewed on the Grid once they have got out of their cars in the Pit Lane. Should either of your drivers be among the top three (3) at the end of the Sprint we would like to ask for your co-operation in following the procedure below:

  • Once they receive the chequered flag, Drivers who finish the Sprint in the top three (3) positions will be required to return to the Pit Lane where they will find the boards showing positions from 1, 2, 3 located in front of the FIA Garages.
  • All remaining cars must enter Pit Lane and park in the Pit Entry as directed by FIA officials.
  • Other than the team mechanics (with cooling fans if necessary), officials and FIA pre-approved television crews and the four (4) FIA approved photographers, no one else will be allowed in the

designated area at this time (no driver physios nor team PR personnel). At the sole discretion of

the FIA Media Delegate, the team-embedded photographer of the pole position driver may also be permitted in the designated area at this time. x Once out of their cars, the top three (3) Drivers will be weighed by the FIA. Each Driver must remain fully attired until after they have been weighed (e.g: Helmet, Gloves, etc). x Drivers must not interfere with Parc Fermé protocols in any way.

x After the Drivers have been weighed, they will be escorted to the "Sprint Ceremony" area on the Grid. During the Sprint Ceremony, the Drivers will be interviewed and presented with their Sprint awards. If there is heavy rain, the Sprint Ceremony will take place on the Podium.

x Once the interviews are concluded, the top three (3) Drivers will be escorted by the FIA Media Delegate to the FIA Press Conference located on the lower ground level of the paddock building. x At the end of the FIA Press Conference, the top three (3) drivers will go to the TV pen, located at the Pit Entry end of the Paddock behind the FIA Garages and they may be accompanied by their press officers, who should wait to collect their drivers at the back of the press conference room.

x Drivers classified from 4th and beyond must proceed directly to the TV pen immediately after they have been weighed in the Parc Fermé, located in the FIA garage. Each Driver must remain fully attired until after they have been weighed (e.g.: Helmet, Gloves, etc.). x Any Driver from 4th and beyond who does not have a virtual session for the written media organized after the Sprint session must be available for interviews at the written media zone adjacent to the TV pen once their TV interviews have concluded. x Drivers who retire during the Sprint session are required to go to the TV pen and written media zone as soon as they have come back into the paddock.
