Let (M,g) be a Riemannian manifold and let 1, 2, 3 be mutually orthogonal distributions on M of dimensions p1, p2,P3 such that p1 + p2 + p3 = dim M. We assume that , and 1, ⊕ 2 are integrable and that all the geodesies of M with initial tangent vector in 2 remain tangent to 2. Then, we prove that Pontk( 2, ⊕ 3) = 0 for k > p2 + 2p3, where Pontk( 2, ⊕ 3) is the subspace of the Pontrjagin algebra of 2 ⊕ 3 generated by forms of degree k.
