One oddity – one of the FW races ran two laps under a safety car. The commentator correctly said that these laps counted as part of the race distance. Then low and behold, the race was extended by two laps. In contrast, the mid-engined race was red flagged 4 laps before the end because a car was in a dangerous position on the exit to Graham Hill bend. It could easily have been towed off under a safety car.
Andy,
cannot comment about Brands in patricular but the use of a safety car appears to depend on the the "championship class" of each race. In Scotland, where I marshal, a Safety car is only used during specific races which are usually visiting rounds of a national championship. Rounds of local Scottish championship races are not covered by a safety car, relying instead on waved yellows or a red flag.
