The flag will first be displayed at the start/finish line and then in trackwise order at all flag posts. On passing the flag at the start/finish line, the race leader must slow down sufficiently (to around 25 mph/40kph maximum) and all competing cars must line up in order behind the Race leader who will act as the pace setter. No overtaking permitted.

The field will remain in close formation, at reduced speed, for as long as it takes to clear the obstruction or remove the hazard, whatever its nature. Competitors who fail to slow down sufficiently or who overtake under the Yellow/Black flag, thereby gaining advantage, may be excluded or otherwise penalised.

When the Clerk of the Course is satisfied that the track is clear, or the problem resolved, the Race will be resumed with a Green flag at the start/finish line and the simultaneous withdrawal of all Yellow/Black flags around the circuit.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row row_content_width=”grid” row_background_shadow=”no” css=”.vc_custom_1553603687571{padding-bottom: 60px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”3535″][mkdf_section_title position=”left” title_tag=”h4″ disable_break_words=”no” separator=”no” title=”Slippery surface”][vc_column_text]Stationary: Slippery surface ahead.
