Drive-through

Drive-through

Un drive-through (terme anglophone signifiant « conduire à travers ») est une pénalité qui s'applique en compétition automobile durant une épreuve. Elle consiste en un passage obligatoire par les stands, sans s'arrêter, mais en respectant la vitesse limite en vigueur.

Ce type de pénalité est courant en Formule 1 notamment. Cette sanction est plus légère qu'un stop-and-go qui, lui, induit en plus un arrêt de 10 secondes aux stands.
