Recommended Posts

Have I missed it or are we still waiting for the official rules for starting?

As far as I know, the change for this year is that you are disqualified if any part of the rider, his bike, or his equipment touches the tapes.

And despite what the TV commentators might say about the length of the delay between Green Light & Tapes Up.........

15.2.9.1 After a pause of not less than 1½ seconds, sufficient to enable the Riders to spin their engines and focus attention, and provided all riders are stationary the Referee shall release the Tapes to signify the start.
Therefore, if riders are moving, they are the reason that the delay is longer!
