Kiwi triathlete Hayden Wilde was controversially denied New Zealand’s first gold medal of the Games when he was forced to serve a 10-second penalty for allegedly unclipping his helmet before he had parked his bike during the transition from the cycling to the run.
I tutū te puehu i te whakahēnga o tā Aotearoa mētara kōura tuatahi o ngā Taumāhekeheke nō tā te kaiaka tauwhāinga-toru, nō tā Hayden Wilde whai i tētahi whiunga 10 hēkona, he whakapae nō tāna wete i tōna pōtae mārō i mua i te whakatū i tōna paihikara i te whakawhitinga o te ekenga ki te omanga.
Triathlon rules state a helmet must be on the athlete’s head and secured before removing the bike from racking, and remain that way “until the bike is securely racked again”.
E ai ki ngā ture tauwhāinga-toru, me noho tonu, me ita tonu te pōtae mārō ki te upoko o te kaiaka ā mua i te tango i te paihikara i te tūnga, ā, me pērā tonu “tae noa ki te ūnga mārika anō ki te whakatūnga”.
