Protocol states that you should place the screen on the same or opposite side of the scoring table along the horizontal side of the field so both alliances can see it. At FLR, the venue layout has seating on both sides so the screen is placed on the vertical end of the field, only one alliance can see the realtime score and match time left. The screen is placed next to the drivers on the opposite side of the field so they are not disadvantaged by not knowing the realtime score and time.
