31.1.2 When a regrouping park does not exceed 15 minutes, crews may remain in this regrouping
park.
31.2 PROCEDURE AT THE EXIT FROM A REGROUP
After a regrouping during a Day, the cars shall restart in the order of arrival at the regroup.
After regrouping the starting order should follow, as far as possible, the general classification
drawn upon arrival at the regrouping area. Otherwise, cars should start in order in which
they started in previous section. In no case can the times set during special stages alone be
taken into consideration when establishing the general classification, which must include
road penalties as well as other penalties expressed in time.
SPECIAL STAGES

For special stages, timing will be to the second. However, timing to the tenth of a second is
permitted for all rallies counting towards a Championship.

The maximum average speed authorised on special stage rally must not exceed 110 kph. If in
the opinion of the organizer, a stage (s) is expected to cross the maximum permitted average
speed of 110 kph, the organizers must ask the FMSCI for a route inspector who shall certify
the stage(s) to be safe to run or not. The maximum average speed of 110 kph will not be
applicable to a stage(s) certified by the FMSCI route inspector as safe to run.

wait for the sweeper car to pass before continuing.
