orangeman 1,323 Posted February 18, 2022 #667 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Nice sportsmanship by Verbij, but it's the rule. He would have been DQed if he tried to carry on because Drubreuil had the right of way. In any case, if they were even at that point and Drubreuil was going to the inside lane and ended up 2nd, there's no way Verrbij had a chance at the podium going to the outside lane.

Verbij stood no chance, there’s no doubt about that. However, he could have messed up Dubreuil’s race as well by trying trying to save his own, either by speeding up and unsuccessfully trying to change lanes hindering Dubreuil, or by only holding back at the end of the change over forcing Dubreuil to enter the corner in an unpleasant manner at such high speeds. Both would’ve led to a disqualification of Verbij, but most likely also to Dubreuil finishing outside the podium places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herki 64 Posted February 18, 2022 #669 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Really pleased with Marten Liiv's 7th place, he said he aims top 10 and he made it, at least 1 our athlete who reached their goal. TBH I rate this result higher than Saskia Alusalu's "4th" at PY. rafalgorka and heywoodu 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, it's the rule, but he could have tried in some sort of desperate attempt. Wouldn't be unique or anything, and it would definitely have messed Dubreuil's race up.
