Rally1 cars, top-tier machinery in WRC, are equipped with hybrid powertrain with high voltage unit and traction battery. To ensure safe operations, these vehicles have been equipped with warning lights placed on both sides and at the front windscreen of the car. Green light means that electric unit is working fine, and car is safe for spectators. Meanwhile red light warns that it is not safe to touch the car, due to risk of electric shock. No light means it is potentially also unsafe.

Sometimes cars go out of the road during the special stage. Not always crew is able to get out of the ditch or grass by themselves. This is the situation when enthusiastic spectators get into action, pushing the car back on the road. However, before you rush to help Rally1 car crew, please check there is green light behind one of the windows.
