Cornerworking
One
of the best ways to learn about racing, and have one of the greatest
places to watch, is by cornerworking. So, what is cornerworking, you
ask?
Cornerworking
is a crucial part of racing. Without corner workers, racing couldn't
take place. They work in a team on a corner of the racetrack, and are
always on the lookout for anything that may create a situation that
is unsafe for the racers. Cornerworkers signal conditions to the racers
using flags and hand signals. They also coordinate their actions with
other workers using signals and with Race Control using two-way radios.
They keep the track clear of debris, liquids, and disabled race vehicles,
and assist participants who have crashed. Cornerworkers are there to
keep the riders safe and assist any way they can. To learn more about
