Not necessarily. I remember at Silverstone when it went from FCY to SC because of marshals on the track it became less safe because of cars belting round to catch the queue.

I'm thinking if they have three Safety cars, why not designate one as Hyper, one as LMP2 and one as GT. When told it's OK to do so, simply go and join the back of the one that has your class behind it. Anyone who's in front of the class leader when picked up can be moved on to the back of the next one at an appropriate safe time/place.
