Not a red flag exactly but a delayed start....
A few years ago at a club meeting at Silverstone the race pack, headed by the safety car, was stationary on the grid for a 2 mins silence before the start in memory of someone associated with that race championship who was recently deceased. The safety car driver realised that his feet were getting wet - the safety car was pouring water all over the track! It was hastily pushed into the pits, the pits crew cleared up the mess and the startline team were told not to hurry to put the drivers back in their cars whilst the course car was hastily kitted out with a lights bar as a stand-in.
And of course a section of the return road at Prescott is a bridleway and the instruction is to "give way" to horses.....
