its quite funny, normal race driver can juz exit the pitlane even though there are faster cars coming...
so why under SC when the cars outside are slower, they are not allow to exit?


in normal race also, that Blue light will flash whenever got car pass..
abt the whole red light incident is...
when the SC is out.. it makes all 20 cars go slow and they whole line will be very long...like snake..
so when Kimi/Robert/Lewis entered the pitlane.. the guys at the back just oni turn onto the start/finish straight..
then when kimi/robert ready to come out, under safety car, the rule is, all of the 'Snake' must pass by 1st then oni the guys who pit stop can go out..
im not sure why this rule is set.. my guess is that they dun want the cars who pit stop under SC, to gain advantage and go infrnt of cars in the 'Snake' which not yet stop..
so, thats why the light Red.. if u notice.. just abt 5secs after lewis hit kimi, the light turn green.. coz all of the snake already pass..
if they were just few secs slower, this whole situation would have been avoided..
