About the Role of a Commissaire

Commissaire is the term for an official in competitive cycling. In other sports, they are called referees, umpires, or judges. Most cycling levents require two or more commissaires to fulfill a variety of roles, including supervising pre-and post-race formalities, briefing riders and race officials, checking the compliance of equipment, monitoring compliance with the rules, maintaining safety during racing, resolving disputes, and judging results. Sitting as a panel, chaired by the President of the commissaires panel (PCP) they serve to resolve contentious decisions. The PCP is the holder of ultimate authority over the event.

Commissaires' administrative duties include checking riders' eligibility to compete and filing results and reports on race organisation, incidents, and penalties.
