Black with Gold Spot: Sometimes thought of as an orange spot, whatever the case, a black flag with a gold/orange circle in the centre indicates a mechanical problem.Green: The green flag is basically a signal for ‘all clear’, meaning any dangers reported with the yellow, red or striped flag, is now gone.If the flag has ‘SC’ on it, it means the safety car is on the track.
