It's very easy for a ROOK to stop a PAWN from CAPTURING THE FLAG.
All he has to do is to move onto the SAME FILE as the enemy PAWN.
Here, he can move to f1 and ATTACK the PAWN. Running away is no good. The ROOK will still be able to CAPTURE the PAWN next move.
But if the ROOK moved to a3, the SAME RANK as the PAWN, the PAWN would be able to run away to f2.
