UCI CYCLING REGULATIONS  2.6.021 Bonuses shall be shown only in individual general classification by time. No bonuses  shall be awarded for individual or team time trial events.  2.6.022 Prizes shall be awarded for each stage and half-stage as well as for all classifications,  without prejudice to the power the UCI Management Committee or, for UCI WorldTour  events, the Professional Cycling Council, to impose minimum prizes.  2.6.023 The starting order for individual time trial stages shall be the reverse order of the general  time classification. Nevertheless, the commissaires panel may modify that order to avoid  two riders of the same team riding consecutively.  2.6.024 The starting order of team time trial stages shall be the inverse order of the general team  classification, to the exception of the leader’s team which starts last. Where no such  classification exists, the starting order shall be determined by drawing lots.  2.6.025 The classification of these stages shall only count towards the general individual time  classification and the general team classification. The race regulations shall determine  how times be recorded, including those of riders who drop behind.  2.6.026 A rider dropping out of the race may not compete in any other cycling events for the  duration of the stage race that he abandoned, on pain of a 15 day suspension and a fine  of CHF 200 to 1,000.  2.6.027 In the case of a duly noted incident in the last three kilometres of a road race stage, the  rider or riders affected shall be credited with the time of the rider or riders in whose  company they were riding at the moment of the incident. His or their placing shall be  determined by the order in which he or they actually cross the finishing line.
