Rules

  • The start is Le Mans-style. The competitors run to the starting signal to the stationary bikes in the distance. The bikes will be grouped in categories, at a safe distance from each other.
  • Motor racing is a dangerous thing, so you need to pay attention to safety and the signals from the marshals. Anyone who ignores them may be disqualified or repeatedly disqualified by the organiser.
  • The referee's signal is valid for the current track section, i.e. until the next referee station.
  • The flag signals must be obeyed: yellow: danger signal, slow down, overtaking is forbidden, red: slow down and enter the pit lane at a slow pace, yellow-red striped flag: the track is slipping, e.g. oil has been spilled, green: start or restart, end of danger, chequered flag: end of race, exit the pit lane, .
  • The engine may leave the track under its own power only at the pit lane, with the permission of the marshal. If it becomes inoperable, another designated exit point may be used. A disabled engine must be left in the safest place available under the circumstances (ideally the depo) and the competitor must leave the track immediately by the shortest route. Any form of driving on the track against the direction of travel is prohibited and will result in immediate disqualification
  • For personal safety reasons, in the event of a roll-over or slip, the rider must immediately get out of the pits and the bike may be driven by a teammate, provided he is not injured. A rider who slips may continue racing after passing through the "pit lane" and, if necessary, after a medical check.
  • Red flag races will be restarted within 15 minutes of the end of the race so the race will resume, return to the starting grid immediately.
  • Medical care will be provided throughout the competition.
  • For disrespecting the yellow flags, they will be disqualified in serious cases, in milder/less serious cases, they will receive an exclusion penalty (send-off).
  • Competitors should strive to behave in a safe manner that does not unnecessarily endanger others. During the pit stops, the team leaders must constantly check the technical condition of the bikes and, if necessary, have them replaced or repaired immediately.
  • In the event of any engine handling deficiencies during the race which compromise safety, the organiser will disqualify the competitor from the race.
  • From the beginning of darkness, the competitors and the paddock visitors also must wear visibility vests.

Evaluation

The teams start with a scooter or motorbike up to 51.7 cm3, 1-2 or 3 competitors a team captain and a press officer, and complete 300 laps of the 1120 m long track, 336 km, in a maximum of 5 hours. During the race, the competitors can take turns and stay in the depo as they wish. Scoring is by photocell/transponder timing and lap counting. The fastest team to complete 300 laps is the winner. In the absence of this, lap counting will prevail. Teams will be awarded points in proportion to their placing, which will be added up at the end of the race.

Protest

After taking over and until 30 minutes after the end of the race, you can lodge a protest with the organisers for breaking the rules. The protest must be submitted in writing and the fee is 10.000.- HUF per protest, which is payable to the organiser of the competition. The protest must include the personal details of the protestor, the name of the competitor concerned, the type of vehicle and the number of the grid, and a brief description of the objection. The protested party's vehicle shall be placed in a separate parking area and no modifications may be made to it until the investigation is completed. All parties concerned and any witnesses shall be heard during the investigation. If the irregularity which is the subject of the protest is proven, the protesting party shall be reimbursed the protest fee. If the protest is found to be unfounded, or if it is withdrawn after it has been lodged, the protest fee paid, or part of it, shall not be refundable. If the protest is found to be partially justified, the protest fee may be partially refunded. If the protestor is found to have acted in bad faith, the protest fee shall not be refunded. If the protest is successful, the competitor will be disqualified. The protest will be dealt with jointly by the technical staff and the Organiser's representative. Each protest may contain only one objection. In the case of multiple objections or objections involving more than one competitor, more than one protest must be lodged At the end of the race, the bikes must be driven directly from the track to the parc fermé, where, in the event of a protest, the bike will be subject to a dismantling test - in which case the team mechanic must carry out the dismantling on site and present the marked part to the organisers.
