Officials - Stewards Decision Making

In Simple Terms

The stewards (officials who make decisions on rule violations) can use video footage and electronic tools to help them make fair decisions about what happened during a race. They have the authority to overturn the decisions made by on-track judges if they believe the evidence shows something different.

• Stewards can use video replays and electronic evidence to review incidents and make informed decisions
• Stewards have the final authority and can overrule the judgments of other officials on the ground
• This rule ensures stewards have all available technology to make accurate and fair rulings
