WattFest Round 1: The Results

WattFest is back…Tempus Fugit hosted the first round last night, full results below! It’s not too late to get your league started, enter the next round at the bottom of this page.

WattFest23 has nine rounds. A rider’s best six count to their final score. And there’s a team competition which takes in each team’s best four riders every week to contribute to their final team score.

All rounds have been specially selected to give different riders a chance to shine and to help progress everyone’s riding over the course of the winter and spring.

ISSUES OR MISSING RESULTS

Unlike previous Triathlon Ireland leagues, WattFest is 100pc contained on the Zwift and ZwiftPower platforms which means the league table calculations are automatically derived from the race results.

If you don’t see yourself on the league table, your first port of call should be to check the Zwift Power FAQs and then the ZwiftPower support desk (at the bottom of the FAQ page).

Triathlon Ireland doesn’t have the ability to reverse or edit race results but if you have a question you can’t find the answer to by all means email us and we’ll do our best to help.

If you were ‘filtered’ from any of the races it will have been for a technical reason which again, Triathlon Ireland doesn’t have the power to override. We know getting DQ’d can be frustrating and sometimes not even within the control of the rider.

Here’s a run down of the main reasons a rider will find themselves ‘filtered’ out of the results.
