Procedure

Post-Sprint Qualifying procedure outlining media and weighing protocols for drivers.

This document details the Post-Sprint Qualifying Procedure for the 2026 Canadian Grand Prix, specifying protocols for the top three drivers and others after Sprint Qualifying. Key requirements include: - The fastest three drivers must return to the Pit Lane and remain fully attired until weighed by the FIA. - Only authorized personnel (mechanics, officials, approved media) are allowed in the designated area during this time. - The fastest driver conducts a live interview in the designated area, followed by a Pirelli Award photo and a pooled TV interview at the FIA garages. - Drivers eliminated in SQ1/SQ2 or finishing 2nd–10th must conduct a pooled TV interview immediately after being weighed. - All drivers must proceed to the FIA scales promptly, without consuming anything or interacting with unauthorized personnel, to ensure accurate weight measurement. - Drivers who stop on track but avoid the Medical Centre must still report to the FIA scales.

No regulations are cited, and no penalties or infringements are issued. This is a procedural advisory for teams and officials.
