CACC Rule Change Proposal
RCP-2024-1595

4.7.4 Red Flag at Start/Finish and At All Posts
Should a decision be made to stop any track session, including a race, because of an accident or
an incident, a red flag will be shown at the start/finish line and simultaneously each corner post
will display a red flag.
4.7.4.1 Informs the driver that a track session has been halted. Drivers shall slow down
immediately, no passing and proceed to the pits.
4.7.4.2 Cars entering the pits must remain in single file and stop in the pit lane away from the
working area. If during a qualifying or race session, no work or service shall be
performed on any cars until after the track has been reopened, except under the
direction of the steward.

4.7.4 Red Flag at Start/Finish and At All Posts
Should a decision be made to stop any track session, including a race, because of an accident or an incident, a red flag will be shown at the start/finish line and simultaneously each corner post will display a red flag. Drivers shall immediately reduce speed, proceed where possible to a position near the next manned flag station and stop near the right edge of the running surface. Drivers shall remain in their cars and await instruction from a race official.

GCRs were modified in RCP-2023–1239 to return to the full stop observation of the red flag but race regulations were overlooked. This corrects that oversight.
