pit stop rules

Pit stop rules in racing ensure safety and fairness during vehicle servicing. During a pit stop, the driver must stay within the designated pit box, and certain procedures—like changing tires or refueling—must follow strict regulations. Team members are only allowed to perform specific tasks within a set time, and deliberate unsafe actions can result in penalties. Once the pit stop is complete and the vehicle is clear of the pit lane, the driver can re-enter the race. These rules prevent unfair advantages and maintain safety protocols for everyone involved.
