Usually, it's pretty bright. If the tarps aren't up, light comes from the sun in the Dome. If they are, there are other lights used.

As for the pits, in most places it's bright enough. If you're near one of the screens, though, make sure that the nearby lights are on. It's a safety hazard if they aren't, because then you can't see well enough to work effectively. Chase down as many people as you can to get the lights on. (Safety judges, FTAs, Pit Admin, people in dark blue FIRST shirts, people from Show Ready, etc.)
