What does "flag to flag" mean? (lemmy.world)

New to watching, keep hearing people talk about tomorrow's race being a "flag to flag" and to me that just sounds like any race since there's a green starting flag and checkered finish flag. What am I misunderstanding?

Track goes from dry to wet.

Also that they keep two bikes with different tires to swap out as needed.

Ah! Thank you! That's why the commentators were concerned about damaged bikes then!

Edit to add I'm pretty sure I upvoted you but it's still only showing one, sorry not sure what is going on.
