A drafting detection system will be used at the Long Distance World Championships in Ibiza in May to help officials detect riders who are illegally making use of a slipstream, World Triathlon said on Monday.
"Not only did we encounter some system bugs that needed to be corrected, but more importantly, we got direct feedback from the athletes and technical officials about their experience of the system in race conditions," RaceRanger CEO James Elvery said. The technology will assist officials with a red light shown when a rider is within the 12-metre draft zone, a blue light for the 2-metre last warning zone and an orange light for a 3-metre"first contact" zone from 14-17 metres.
