For Krono Service (red chip) and Winning Time (yellow chip and the Nove Colli edition) chip owners, simply choose one, enable it, and use it at will on races in Italy timed by the aforementioned timers.
Enabling and purchasing chips online will have to be done exclusively on ENDU, while on the races it will be possible to do so at the “Chip Point” located near the race secretariats.
All MySDAM chip holders and do not have a chip among those listed above will be able to replace their old chip with the OneChip by bringing it to the Chip Point and paying only for the enablement.
