Should the checkered flag be displayed prior to the published or announced race distance or time, the race will be considered complete. For example, should the checkered flag be displayed on lap four of a five-lap race, the race would be considered complete. Should the checkered flag be displayed beyond the published race distance the results will be determined by positions at the completion of the published race distance. For example, if a five-lap race were run for six laps, the results would be based upon position at the end of lap five. 1.3 Red Flag - indicates race has been stopped.
