Following the strict definition of the flag regulations; the red flag tells drivers to: "Immediately cease driving at racing speed and proceed slowly, without overtaking, and with maximum caution to pits or start line obeying marshal’s instructions, and being prepared to stop should the track be blocked." so waved yellows (single/double, etc.) would technically be unnecessary at the point of the incident as the red flag definition tells the drivers to use maximum caution.

Anyone brave enough to drop their yellows in preference for a red when there's marshals working trackside?
