I saw that, but how does hitting a triple and proceed with extreme caution go hand in hand?

I can think of a half dozen races where I saw riders rolling triple jumps and finish line jumps with yellow flags waiving due to a rider being down.

They change the rule??
Thought you had to think twice before doubling down on stupid posts?

Local rules aren't the same as AMA Pro. For an AMA amateur event The following are the yellow flag rules:

YELLOW: Caution. When a yellow flag is displayed,
competitors must ride cautiously until they have passed the
incident that caused the flag. When displayed there is no
passing or gaining an advantage and jumps must be rolled
between the flag and the incident that caused the yellow
flag. Failure to do so may result in loss of positions or
disqualification, subject to the referee’s discretion.

At the AMA Amateur National Motocross Championship
and the AMA Amateur Arenacross National Championship
a rider may jump and pass between the yellow flag and the
incident but must show caution. Failure to show caution
may result in the rider being docked from one finishing
position to a disqualification from the event, subject to the
referee’s discretion.

Even the amateur nationals allow racing on the yellow. As long as you show caution.

I always thought in supercross it looked weird seeing guys tripling past flaggers but its just the way it is i guess.

It seems the red cross flag is now enforced because the yellow flag wasn't enforced. I wonder what colour they'll use next to because the red cross flag isn't being reinforced.

Everyone was doing the same thing so if you penalize him you penalize everyone and the results remain the same.
