Starter
The starter stands on a small raised podium at the start/finish line. His/her job is to signal to the drivers and to the fans. This includes flags and lap boards described above and also signalling to the drivers their current position.
If you ever get stuck on who’s winning, or roughly where your favourite driver is, watch the starter signalling the drivers through.
