Galgotias students once again have managed F1 operations – this time as Racing Marshals in India’s biggest Motor Racing Sporting Event. 70 students of Galgotias University went through a rigorous training to get selected as racing marshals. Marshals are typically F1’s unsung heroes; they are the people who put themselves on the line to ensure the safety of the drivers. Galgotians worked in pit and paddock areas, assembly areas and race control, doing everything to see the event runs efficiently. It was a fabulous experience for students to become part of the event. Everyone was highly delighted and thankful for being Galgotians as by virtue of this they have been given this opportunity to not just manage F1 operations but also watch their favorite drivers do battle on the track very closely.
