If a rider repeatedly violates a rule within a class, what is a possible consequence according to the Rulebook?

Repeated rule violations within a class trigger disciplinary action defined in the Rulebook. Officials are empowered to impose penalties or disqualify the rider when rules are broken repeatedly, with the escalation chosen based on the offense and the class’s guidelines. This system keeps competition fair and safe by not letting ongoing violations go unchecked. A single warning is generally for a first or minor offense, while the other options—the other rider receiving the prize or no action—do not reflect how rule enforcement works when violations continue.
