TRANSPARENCY

The world of eracing brings with it many challenges and one of the biggest is verifying and validating performance data. As a team, we are all committed to ensuring our set-ups and data are as accurate as possible, and that we strive to always be transparent. This is our commitment to each other, the community and the future of the sport.

This has been our commitment since the founding of the team in 2019, and continues to be so to this day. Some of the commitments below were not commonplace in the past, and we are glad that more governing bodies have adopted these measures to ensure fair racing.

Our commitment for all major races

  1. Every rider will provide a weigh-in video on the day of the race, taken before the race. This will be provided directly to the relevant governing body as part of any pre-verification process.
  2. All riders agree to adhere to the rulesets published by the relevant platform and/or race organiser. For example, the Cycling Esports Rules published by Zwift.
  3. Every member of the team is responsible for ensuring their equipment is properly calibrated and running the latest software.
  4. All team members will dual-record their performances for all major races.
  5. Every rider commits to having up-to-date power recordings ready to share with any other governing body as and when required to do so.
  6. Where possible, all riders will livestream their performances and share corroborating material to verify their equipment setup if asked by a governing body.
  7. We will all contribute to the conversation to help ensure a clean sport and offer our advice and assistance wherever possible.
  8. Where relevant, all riders will be willing to perform in-person verifications in a laboratory at the race organiser or platform's expense.

A better future for racing

We will continue to expand and develop our Transparency commitment and internal guidelines as new standards and approaches are developed. We believe even more measures could be implemented in the future with the aid of the platforms, and we are happy to work with anyone to achieve that goal.

We are proud to have taken many of these learnings and applied them to the Coalition Community.
