    You can go to the ChampionChip Spectator website before the race has started, but you will see no activity. If you do this you will have to reload the page once the race has started, simply press F5 (Internet Explorer) and the page should reload. You watch the action in the area marked B on the plan.

    Once the race is started you can tick the competitors you want to see in the Competitors column (AREA C) on the right. By clicking on one of the competitors, the screen will centre on that competitor and follow them. Double clicking a competitor opens a little window with additional information, such as speed, distance travelled and (if implemented) heart-rate, cadence etc..

    On the left hand side of the screen, (AREA A)various buttons will control the appearance of the map 2D, 3D, and Map or Satellite images, zoom in zoom out and follow views are available. Also you can press the List view button and get a new window showing a full list of all the split times per participant and the estimated time (ETA) they will complete the event in (if the event has a known route).

    Once the race has finished (this is when the last participant has crossed the finish) you can replay it at any time, now additionally you can speed up the race by clicking on the Replay Speed bar (AREA D) you can also click on the timeline to jump to that part of the race.

    Bear in mind that at the start of the race there will be many thousands of viewers attempting to do the same as you, give a little longer for the page to load and the Flash animation to commence before pressing F5 to reload the page.
