When a Grand Prix starts, five red lights go out. Drivers who jump the start are penalized. Once a driver does get down to the first corner, they have to get through the challenge of not going off the circuit. Reckless figures such as Eddie "Irv the Swerve" Irvine or David "Flying Scotsman" Coulthard, may make this difficult, the latter being famed for causing an 18 car pile up in Belgium in 1998.
