You are right there should be, but it doesn’t mean there isHas to be some discretion in the rules surely to allow for common sense decisions like this though. That rule is there because 99% of the time you will be gaining an advantage from going outside of track limits - this clearly wasn’t the case here.
This is the key thing, will be interesting to know what the rules sayInterpretations and exceptions have not served the sport well in recent years. Decide the rule- consider or write in the exception circumstances then stick to it.
