Selection box - What does this mean and how does this work? - A feast of posts for the soul this festive period
Published by Christine
It's Christmas week and that means it's hard to concentrate too much on full length articles about motorsports that have long since calmed down for the winter. That being the case, I have a selection of links for you today that are predominately audio and video. A few wordy posts have snuck in, but settle in for some audio/visual entertainment as you snaffle another mince pie.
When the SC or VSC is called, drivers can get a pit stop "for free". What does this mean and how does this work? Let's explore!
