Erm - slippery surface flag is red and yellow stripes mate. Solid yellow and waved yellow essentially mean the same thing.

Solid yellow - caution - incident on track - slow down, no overtaking.

Waved yellow - extreme caution - incident on track - slow down, no overtaking.

Some governing bodies stipulate no overtaking until you're past the incident, some say no overtaking until you're past the next marshals post waving a green flag. Some will have a solid yellow after a waved one and prior to a green.

Being a flag marshal myself you've got to be on the ball!!
