and so for spravkie

Car Safety (Safety Car) is so named due to the fact that it is a "normal" car, which is to provide security at the track during the race. During the Formula 1 Grand Prix, it appears that the race director decides that there is a dangerous situation that must be resolved with maximum accuracy. At this time, any fight between the riders is forbidden, but is allowed to refuel and change tires (2006).

Since it is a regular two-place car, albeit with a modified braking system, modified chassis, cooling system and the exhaust system, it is much slower than the race cars of Formula 1. However, in the event of an accident or bad weather conditions, the safety car has to lead the back of the field for track at a fairly high speed. The high-tech engines Formula 1 cars are cooled by ram at a high speed air flow, while reducing the speed that could cause overheating. Also, decreasing temperature decreases the speed of tires, which leads to a deterioration of their coupling properties with the track.

The first safety car was used in the 1973 Canadian Grand Prix. However, he went on the road ahead is not the leading rider, who took the position correctly one circle before, and only a few hours after the finish of the race were able to understand the present and to determine the winner. Then the safety car was used only after 20 years in 1993 in the Brazilian Grand Prix.

Canadian Grand Prix in 1999 - the only Formula 1 race, which took place finish behind the safety car.
