Race Timing in Brittany

It’s the question we all ask ourselves: how long does each participant take to complete their race? 🤔 That’s the whole point of timing, which measures the time from the start to the finish to establish the rankings. Long done with a handheld stopwatch, it is now electronic ⏱️. Chips attached to the bib, shoe, or bike are automatically detected on the ground as athletes pass. In practical terms, this setup relies on timing mats equipped with RFID antennas, placed on the ground on the start line, finish line, and intermediate checkpoints: each chip emits a unique frequency captured to the nearest thousandth of a second, ensuring rankings with impeccable accuracy. It’s also thanks to it that we distinguish official time (calculated from the starting signal) from net time, which only begins when you cross the line—very handy when you start at the back of the pack!

So, what does that look like in practice?
