NASCAR Flags Explained In Detail
NASCAR drivers don't usually want to see a flag during a race other than the green, the white and the checkered. That's because the other flags are usually an indication that something has gone wrong. It may be something like a yellow caution flag for an accident or it may be something as serious as a red flag which brings a complete stop to the race. Here is a list of the eight NASCAR flags and what they mean for the drivers:

Green - Race begins or resumes from another conditional flag.
Yellow - Racing under caution. Conditions adverse or hazardous.
Red - Racing has come to a halt. All pit crew and repair work must cease.
Black - The "consultation flag". Driver must pit. Usually due to rule violation.
Black with White "X" - Driver no longer scored for failing to pit under black.
Blue With Yellow Stripe - Basically, let faster cars by. This one is optional to a degree.
White Flag - Last lap of the race.
Chcekered flag - Race is over. Winner will be declared.
