At the conclusion of the event, only the top 3 individual rider scores from each team will contribute toward the final Team Championship total.

This system ensures smaller teams remain competitive while rewarding consistency across the event.

Team Relay

The Team Relay is the final major points opportunity of the Nationals and is expected to play a decisive role in determining the Team Championship standings.

The relay has been specifically designed to maximise:

  • Rider safety

  • Predictable transitions

  • Fair competition

  • Spectator visibility

  • Strategic team racing

Relay Format

  • Teams may nominate up to 6 relay riders

  • Total race distance: 6 laps

  • Riders may complete either 1 or 2 laps during the relay

  • No rider may complete more than 2 laps total

  • No rider may complete consecutive laps

This format allows teams flexibility in strategy while ensuring balanced rider participation and safe transition pacing.

Teams may choose to:

  • Use 6 separate riders completing 1 lap each
    OR

  • Use fewer riders, with selected riders completing a second non-consecutive lap

  • Rider 1 → Lap 1

  • Rider 2 → Lap 2

  • Rider 3 → Lap 3

  • Rider 4 → Lap 4

  • Rider 5 → Lap 5

  • Rider 6 → Lap 6

Example 2 — 4 Rider Rotation

  • Rider 1 → Lap 1

  • Rider 2 → Lap 2

  • Rider 1 → Lap 4

  • Rider 2 → Lap 5

  • Rider 3 → Lap 6

Relay Grid Zones

Each team will be assigned a dedicated relay grid zone adjacent to the circuit.

Grid zones are designed to:

  • Separate teams safely

  • Control rider movement

  • Reduce transition collisions

  • Provide clear rider staging areas

Only active relay riders and waiting team members are permitted inside their allocated zone.

Rider Transition Procedure

To complete a legal rider handover:

  1. The incoming rider must safely enter the relay lane

  2. The incoming rider must come to a COMPLETE STOP inside their allocated team grid zone

  3. The outgoing rider may only depart once:

    • The incoming rider is fully stationary

    • The incoming rider and PEV are fully contained within the designated zone

No physical pushing, towing, or high-speed tagging exchanges are permitted.

The relay format intentionally prioritises controlled transitions over aggressive handovers.

Non-Racing Team Members

Team members waiting for their lap must:

  • Remain inside their allocated relay grid zone

  • Keep all PEVs stationary until released

  • Avoid obstructing the relay lane

  • Follow marshal directions at all times

Practice launches, warming tyres, weaving, or moving through adjacent team zones will not be permitted.

Any unsafe behaviour within the relay area may result in penalties.

Relay Lane Safety Controls

The relay lane is considered a controlled-speed area.

Incoming riders must:

  • Enter the relay lane in a controlled manner

  • Maintain safe braking distances

  • Avoid aggressive overtaking within the relay lane

  • Remain aware of surrounding riders and marshals

The following behaviours are prohibited:

  • Drifting into relay zones

  • Uncontrolled braking

  • Contact with riders or equipment

  • Entering incorrect team zones

  • Unsafe merges back onto circuit

Event officials reserve the right to remove riders from the relay if unsafe conduct is observed.

Relay Penalties

To ensure fairness and safety, penalties may be applied for relay infractions.

Penalties Include

Offence Penalty

Leaving before incoming rider fully stops Time penalty

Unsafe relay lane entry Time penalty

Unsafe rider release Time penalty

Contact/collision in transition zone Time penalty or disqualification

Leaving assigned team zone Warning or time penalty

  • Disqualification for serious safety breaches

Penalty severity will be determined by event officials.
