I suspect that you also try to keep an eye on the communicators and if you see them reaching for the mike or grabbing a flag that's a good clue.
I watch everyone and everything. The station might be between the fences, but it's still exposed and vulnerable. I'm especially paranoid when I'm alone on "outpost" duty. At Road Atlanta, that typically happens at turns one, five, six, seven, ten, eleven, and twelve. I don't remember "outposts" at Kershaw, but Roebling down in Savannah has to use them. There's really not any such thing at Charlotte and The Rock. Couldn't tell you about VIR; have driven but not worked it.
Being a flagger, I'm attuned to the flaggers on the track when I'm driving. I've gotten the advantage in one way or another quite a few times by noticing a flagger reaching for a flag. Saved me from some real idiots when they threw one during our Driver's School.
