Yellow Flag Rule at RCSX/DVSX

It is necessary to update the 2025 RCSX Supplement Rules to include the definition of the flags that will be used at the event.  In particular to note is that RCSX will follow the AMA Amateur National Motocross Championship Race Procedures as it applies to the yellow flag rule, which allows Jumping and Passing on the yellow flag. 

Accordingly, the 2025 RCSX Supplemental Rules have been updated as follows:

E.5. The Flags.

• Yellow Flag. Indicates a downed rider or other situation to raise caution. A rider may jump and pass between the yellow flag and the incident but must show caution. (Note: This rule differs from the AMA Amateur Rule Book.)
• Red Cross Flag and/or Flashing Safety Lights. Indicates an injured rider and/or medics on the track, or a dangerous situation on the track in an area of limited visibility. Riders must proceed with caution, hold their position and cannot jump or pass between the flag and the incident.
• Green Flag. Given at the completion of lap one to indicate that the race is “on”.
• White Flag. One lap to go until the finish. (Courtesy flag)
• Checkered Flag. End of race.
• Blue Flag. Indicates a rider is about to be lapped. Lapped riders should hold their line and not interfere with the progress of the faster rider(s). A Blue Flag can be given anywhere along the racecourse.
• Red Flag. Indicates the race has been stopped. Riders must return to their original start gate position to await further instruction.
