Class numbers were preceded by a "T" for track events, an "F" for field events, and a "P" for the pentathlon. Lower respective class numbers corresponded to more severe disability. An exception to this classification scheme arose for athletes with severe cerebral palsy competing in field events; there were no F32 events, so athletes from this category instead competed in class F51 against athletes with spinal cord disabilities.[1]
