Organization of the boxes during a race weekend

Post

Hi,
I'd like to know how the boxes are managed, with the other categories, during a race weekend.
Thanks for the answers. :)

Good question. At most new circuits they have a separate pit lane for F1.

At Silverstone, the other series use the old pits and use the old grid location too.

They didn't use the old grid- they carted the cars over the infield and the team personnel had to get buses lol. They also used the F1 pit boxes and Race strategy screens for the Team Principals in F1. Don't know how else to describe them...

Not FIA GT1 and GT3.
The truth will come out...
