So, if a competitor publishes a tweet, mid-series, calling the Race Officer "retarded" is that covered by any rule?


Depends, if it were me and I saw it early enough OCS usually covers it.

I think it is bang out of order to publish comments like this on public forums. Fair enough have a moan to other competitors and if you get interviewed then say you felt the the race should not have been run. 

They always have the opportunity for redress if they feel the RC actions disadvantaged them remember. Unless of course they left launching too late and were late over the line causing them to get timed out at the finish....

Post something in haste, delete it later - better than leaving it there, isn't it? Better would be to have a think before posting, but we are all guilty of not doing that, I'm sure.
