The measuring system according to the invention makes it possible to correct an arrival time of an athlete (20) in a foot race. The system includes a transponder module (1) customized and placed on an upper part of the athlete's body and a base station (10). The transponder module comprises a signal receiving unit (3), a processing unit (4) of data, measurements or commands, a transmission unit (5) of data signals and / or measurements and / or of commands, and a motion sensor (7) for supplying measurement signals to the processing unit. The motion sensor may be a gyro (7) connected to the processing unit in the transponder module and configured to determine an angle of inclination of the athlete's body relative to a vertical direction when passing the line. of arrival (30) for a correction of the race arrival time. The invention also relates to a measurement method using a system as described above.
