The new rules as of 2001 have a new internationally recognised start sequence as follows ...
With 5 mins to the actual start, a gun will sound and your divisional flag will be hoisted.
At 4 mins, the "Blue Peter" (P flag, blue with a white square) will be raised and a gun or horn blasted.
At 1 min the P flag is lowered, also with a sound signal.
The actual race start is signalled by lowering of the divisional flag and a single gun or horn blast.
