DISQUALIFICATION (DSQ) RED CARD Any combination of three blue cards may result in disqualification (DSQ)!!!! IRONMAN will operate under the principle BLUE CARD violations and you are out (DSQ). DRAFTING AND LITTERING are the only two violations that will incur a time penalty (to be served in the closest penalty tent, located along the bike course), all violations count for the three penalties necessary to be disqualified. It is important to remember that any penalty incurred along the bike course, requires the athlete to stop at the penalty tent along the route. Any penalties incurred in the run course are to be served at the point of infraction (that is to say the athlete cannot go to the penalty tent). Any combinations of three penalties will result in DSQ. So that you understand the rules to be applied on race day, it is very important to read carefully the Athlete Guide and the IRONMAN Competition Rules.

Passed athletes must be seen making immediate and constant rear progress up to a distance of four bike lengths before trying to pass, to avoid Drafting call. The triathlon is an individual sport and so it is the responsibility of each athlete to know the rules of the competence and avoid penalties. The referee s ruling is final in the case of POSITION violations, and there are no protests or appeals. Other common violations include: The triathlon is an individual sport and so it is the responsibility of each athlete to know the rules of the competence and avoid penalties. - The referee s ruling is final in the case of POSITION violations, and there are no protests or appeals.
