Its not protected with safedisk it's Securom 2. You have a couple of options.

1. Make a perfect copy using CloneCD. Read Sub channel data and audio. As long as you writer can read and write sub channels and is compatible with CloneCD. Also it will only work in cd-rom drive not cd writer drive part of protection.
2. Use the the new program called Unsecurom to make a NO CD exe to run the game without the CD. This prog will only work if you have the orignal CD. You can download it here

3. Use a prog called deamon tools which makes a virtual cd rom drive from a image made by using clonecd. Download it from cd media world links at top of page.

Hope this helps. i think option 2 is the best but remember you can't patch it when a officail patch is released by codemasters. So i suggest when you make the NO CD exe you slightly change the name of ie by adding a number or something, then making a shortcut to the desktop that points that exe instead of the orignal one.
