Pit mechanics must come out into the pit lane on the lap before the car comes in, so all teams will know when a car is about to do something. This is termed a scheduled pit stop. Unscheduled pit stops are allowed (usually as a result of combat damage when the driver just pulls into the pits), but the pit crew must come out as soon as the decision for a pit stop is made in this case. There is no penalty for an unscheduled pit stop save the time taken for the pit crew to get ready for it. 3, record 2, English, - pit%20stop
