Formula One (F1) has made sure drivers can show support for an 'End Racism' campaign without being rushed before the start of Sunday's British Grand Prix.

The sport was criticised by Mercedes' six times world champion Lewis Hamilton, the only Black driver, for failing to schedule time for a united protest at the previous race in Hungary.

Race director Michael Masi issued a summary of planned procedures on Saturday to ensure all 20 drivers had time to gather.Drivers will be alerted by a beep on the PA system to walk to the front of the grid where an 'End Racism' banner will be placed across the track.
