The riders will be called to the line by sport class, age category or group, in the following order: 

1. The leader of the World Cup classification, or, for the first World Cup event of the season, the winner of the previous season’s World Cup; 

2. The Road Race World Champion or the year after the Paralympic Games, the reigning Paralympic Games champion; 

3. The first five athletes, according to the order of the most recently published World Cup genera classification, respectively the first five athletes in the general classification of the preceding year’s world cup for the first World Cup. 

Riders who need assistance at the start should place themselves near the barriers to facilitate a safe start for everyone.
