What does "flag to flag" mean? (self.motogp)

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?

I agree that technically all races are flag to flag, but yes, when they say "flag to flag" they mean a wet race where the riders are allowed to change bikes when conditions change - instead of just stopping the race.
