WALL OF FAME

The Rule

Interestingly enough, this news shouldn’t be shocking if you take a look at FIA’s International Sporting Code. Appendix H, Article 2.3.2 specifically states that “team personnel are only allowed in the pit lane immediately before they are required to work on a car and must withdraw as soon as the work is complete.” Furthermore, this specific article goes on to say: “It is forbidden for personnel to climb on pit wall debris fences at any time. Any action by a team breaching this ban will be reported to the Stewards.” This rule was set in place for the 2006 season but has not been enforced over the years.
