In Formula 1, a white flag warns drivers that there is a slow-moving vehicle on the track ahead, such as a car that has lost performance or a recovery vehicle. Drivers should be ready to react and take care.
Note that the F1 meaning differs from some other series, where a white flag signals the final lap.
Slow-moving vehicle on track ahead.
When a slow car or service vehicle is on the racing surface ahead.
The white flag is an advisory rather than a race-defining flag, so Race RGB concentrates on the headline flags. It is still a great candidate for a custom Personalised Reaction.
