A victory lap (also lap of honor) is a term used in motorsports to describe an extra lap of the race track after the conclusion of a race. This lap, driven at reduced speed, allows the winning driver to celebrate their victory and gives the spectators an opportunity to congratulate and honor the competitors. Commonly, trackside flag marshals will wave their flags in a gesture known as the FIA salute or the Monkey Dance in the US. It is not uncommon for marshals to clap or wave their hands at drivers as a gesture and sometimes the drivers wave back in response.

  • Un tour d'honneur est un terme du vocabulaire sportif, en particulier des sports mécaniques et de l'athlétisme. Il s'agit d'un tour de piste réalisé à petite allure après la victoire en compétition. Ce tour est réalisé par le sportif pour fêter sa performance et remercier le public en se montrant à celui-ci. Généralement, le champion se déplace avec le drapeau de son pays, souvent confié par un spectateur, parfois en réalisant des mouvements de danse ou en prenant régulièrement des poses. Cette pratique est aussi très appréciée des photographes de presse. On peut trouver ce genre de comportement dans les sports individuels mais aussi dans les sports collectifs, comme le football ou le rugby à XV. (fr)
  • Nell'automobilismo e nel motociclismo, la locuzione giro d'onore (o a volte giro della vittoria) indica l'ulteriore giro di pista che il pilota vincitore compie al termine della gara. Questo giro in più, eseguito a velocità ridotta, consente al pilota di festeggiare la vittoria e consente al pubblico di rendere omaggio e di congratularsi con lui. Spesso, in Formula 1, i commissari di pista usano sventolare le bandiere in ne cosiddetto "saluto della FIA", un gesto che negli U.S.A. è noto anche come "Monkey Dance" (lett., "il ballo della scimmia"). Non di rado i piloti rispondono salutando con la mano o (soprattutto nei campionati NASCAR) sventolando la bandiera a scacchi che viene loro consegnata sul traguardo. (it)
