Procedure

Post-race procedure for the 2026 Australian Grand Prix, including podium ceremony and media obligations.

This document outlines the post-race procedure for the 2026 Australian Grand Prix, focusing on mandatory protocols for the top three drivers regarding attire, podium ceremony order, media interviews, and movement through parc fermé. It references Article 10.2.2 of the F1 Sporting Regulations, requiring drivers to remain fully attired in their driving suits during the podium ceremony and post-race interviews. The top three finishers (here, Norris, Verstappen, and Pérez) must follow a strict sequence: weighing, media interviews, cool-down room, podium ceremony, TV pen, and press conference. Drivers finishing 4th and below must proceed directly to the TV pen and remain available for media as required.
