Similarly wherever it is mentioned FIA World Cup should read as FMSCI Championships. All FIA Championships are governed by the current FIA International Sporting Code and its appendices (the Code) and these regulations which consist of articles applicable to one or more of the Championships. The purpose of the present General Prescriptions (the Prescriptions) is to establish the framework of regulations applicable to the organisation of the events counting towards the FIA World Cup for Cross-Country Rallies and the FIA World Cup for Cross-Country Bajas, as well as candidate events for these World Cups. Their application is recommended for all Cross-Country Rallies, including Bajas; it is mandatory for all the World Cup. Any breach of these regulations will be reported to the Stewards, who may impose a penalty as indicated in Articles 12.2 and 12.3 of the International Sporting Code. Any case not provided for in the regulations will be studied by the Stewards, who alone have the power to make decisions (Art. 11.9 of the Code). The Prescriptions detail, complete, and in places clarify, the general conditions described in the regulations for FIA International Championships (cf. FIA Yearbook of Automobile Sport) under the headings “FIA World Cup for Cross-Country Rallies” and “FIA World Cup for Cross-Country Bajas” (the World Cups). Only the FIA may grant waivers to the Prescriptions and to the
