I love it when the commentators see amazing side by side racing and are basically ticked off that they're not sitting behind and saving fuel Oh wait....no I don't. |

I know cautions and other things that occur during the race can dictate strategy, but to have them doing fuel economy runs from the drop of the green flag is such a buzzkill. |

If the car has either pulled over or spun off, they will use a local yellow and it remains perfectly safe. This isn't F1 where the drivers don't obey the flags and never get cited for it. |

He was in a position that someone could put a wheel off and spin over into him Trust me, it's an accident waiting to happen. You tell racing drivers that they have to get back to the pits quick because a yellow might be coming out, all they care about is maximising their own delta time through the lap, not respecting anything but their own race Besides, it's not race control's job to help the teams with strategy, their concern should be safety and the rules only |
