Time Cuts

Competitors that arrive at a time distance from the winner of a half stage that is larger than a certain percentage of the winner's time (the finish deadline) are typically taken out of the race (time cuts). This can be administrated by StageRace.

Time cuts functionality is found at the following places in StageRace:

• Half stage configuration
  In the half stage settings the finish deadline for that half stage can be given in a percentage number. A value of 0% signifies no time cuts to apply to this half stage.
• Half stage arrival
  In the arrival tab sheet competitors arriving after the finish deadline are indicated in red highlighting. The finish deadline can again be adjusted here, because juries often change the finish deadline on basis of what actually took place during a half stage.
• Publications
  Time cuts are shown on publications, either in the statistics report in the footer, or in a seperate part of the arrivals listing. This can be configured through the publication settings. Depending on ranking settings the time cuts are excluded from derived classifications.
