Neutralization is fixed in time (controlled pause). 
        Transfer ignores time (flexible transit).
    
Neutralization Zone (NZ): Time is equalized for all. Each rider has a designated restart; they may leave later, not earlier. Use to control regrouping, safety stops, fuel breaks, or to synchronize riders before a special section.
Example: Fuel stop or official pause where everyone must rest 15 min before continuing.Transfer Zone (TZ): Time spent inside DT→FT is excluded from the rider’s total. Riders can pass freely; ranking isn’t affected by time spent there. Global speed limits still apply unless overridden by a Speed Zone.
Example: Between two dirt stages you have 20 km of public road. Add a Transfer Zone so those 20 km don’t count toward race time.Not necessarily. If you don’t set one, the global max speed (e.g., 120 km/h) applies.
To effectively “unset” it, add a Speed Zone inside the section (or start the DN/DT with a DZ) using a very high limit (e.g. 200–300 km/h). Fully disabling speed tracking isn’t available yet.
Note: Neutralization and Transfer Zone functionality in RBR is slightly different from FIM sporting regulations.
This was intentionally designed to give organizers more flexibility within the RBR platform.
Behavior may evolve in future updates to align more closely with FIM standards.
