Just wanted to document the memories of F1 this year, and my crazy attempt to join in as a volunteer as a race official. I was lucky to be able to get in when I applied, as apparently, it’s very difficult to get in because the dropout rate of officials from previous years are very low, and the application from new officials are very high.
I had the chance to meet some great folks, and they were all friendly and took care of one another even though we’ve never met before. The job was tiring (imagine standing for almost 10 – 12 hrs every day for 3.5 days, from 12 noon to 10pm every day), but the warmth of the race and the duties kept all of us going.
