That's all part of the judgement we, as individual incident marshals, IOs & Post Chiefs make when dealing with incidents. Drivers' reaction to waved yellows is an important criterion when assessing whether or not an incident can be dealt with safely without the use of the Safety Car, if available, or requesting a race stop. Any drivers losing control under yellows will be reported &, I hope, severely dealt with.
