Question
Hi,
I am to a F1 fan. Matter of fact going to the indy nexted week. Our first one in real life. Being from North Carolina my husband and I have to get up pretty early to watch the practices and races ect. But enjoy it. Ok enough about us, here is my question. What does the signs around the track that just say Orange and are orange mean.  Have looked it up and ran out of thoughts.
Thank You for your time
Debra Dodd

Answer
Dear Debra,
Orange is a huge private company, provider of mobile phones and mobile phone networks in Europe and beyond. They sponsor all sorts of activities and I think this includes F1. Is this what you meant (i.e. placards and advertising around the track rather than actual flags or race signals?)

I`m a big F1 fan and have been since the early 80s. I read weekly European specialist F1 press and keep on top of what`s happening in F1, such as results and testing, team politics, what drivers are saying etc. I`m especially a follower of the French Prost (formally Ligier) team and am also involved in karting and sports car racing in England.

Experience

Writing accounts of the performance of the (then)Ligier team during Grand Prix meetings. Organinsing karting competitions for 300+ drivers and of course being an Allexperts Formula One expert
