>> UCI regulations, the camera is the finish line
UCI is Union Cycliste Internationale, i.e. the biggest international governing body of cycling events. Not athletics (i.e. track and field). I checked out the C1.1 & C2.1 rulebook from the IAAF and I'm not seeing an equivalent rule. Just a lot of rules for how to place the camera and mark the lane lines and finish line in 19.13

- wanderingstan 2y agoGood find! While it doesn’t say it in so many words, this text seems to say a that the camera’s finish line is the official finish line (especially given the implied requirement that the finish camera be a line camera): > Book C 19.22: Times from the Photo Finish System shall be regarded as official unless for any reason the appropriate official decides that they obviously must be inaccurate.
