In the future we want to arrange internet applying and limit rising number of competitors because of the safety and regularity of the race. So we had to do some substantial changes in propositions. We know that it will be more complicated for you now, but we believe, it will bring simplicity in your applying in next years.

Please, read the propositions very carefully and keep them.
