That screen at the end, where the three podium winners are on display. It all looks very good, and then I got to wondering how they got the cars into those positions given the dimensions of the podium and position of the ramps. I don't think it can be done without cranes, and if you're using those you don't need the ramps...

Why can't you just use some planks to get them up there then take the planks away?
