The traditional
garden of yellow and blue flowers is put in place at the end of pit
lane, between the front straight and pit out |

These are the
driver's "motels" stacked directly behind the pits. One for each of
the three drivers, and another for the team Doctor and masseuse to
work in. |

|
 |
Home away from home
for the drivers during the 24 Hours, this is the inside of one of
the "motels". They're small but comfortable, and complete with a
fully-equipped bathroom/shower and clothes closet |

The race trucks
arrived on Friday from Ingolstadt, Germany, and first order of
business was getting them washed |

Looking down from the
back of the pit grandstand, directly above the back entrance to the
Champion garage. The race car transporter is backed up to the garage
and the support truck is placed parallel to the "motels" along the
back wall of the paddock |

|
 |
Behind the support
truck the body shop guys have all their equipment set up and get
straight to work finishing bodywork preparation for the race |

Looking out the front
of the garage into pit lane. |

The front of the
garage seen from pit lane. The mechanics have already completely
prepared the car at Ingolstadt, but here are doing last minute preps
before official scrutineering in the town center Monday afternoon |

Champion's hospitality area |

The entire race crew
waits (impatiently) out of sight to the left, while the photographer
shoots the mid-day meal, all beautifully laid out by the catering
crew |
