F1 Race : Flags• Penalties for infringing the warning flags, or
for speeding in and out of pit lane, can be costly both in championship points, positions in the race and in cash fines
• According to the seriousness of the offence, suspensions and forfeiture of race positions may be imposed
• These may take the form of a $5,000 fine with a 10 seconds stop-go penalty as the punishment for pit-lane speeding during a race. This means the driver must come to pit lane and stop for this period of time, before resuming the race

• Marshals at various points around the circuit are issued with a number of standard flags, to communicate vital messages to the drivers as they race around the track.
• A special display in each driver’s cockpit - known as a GPS marshalling system - also lights up with the relevant flag colour, as the driver passes the affected section of track.
• Travelling at such high speeds, it may be hard for a driver to spot a marshal’s flag and this system helps them identify messages from race control more effectively.

prohibitions imposed by yellow flags have been lifted.

Slippery Surface!!!A yellow flag with red stripes warns drivers that the track surface ahead is slippery, or
there is debris present. This could be as a result of a car spilling oil (or some other engine fluid), or because rain is starting to fall.
