I believe this (Final B winner getting a medal) happened once with one of the relays few years ago but can't be sure. won bronze in W Relay in PyeongChang 2018 this way If my memory is correct, it was also with a OR or WR in the B final I think Dennis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe this (Final B winner getting a medal) happened once with one of the relays few years ago but can't be sure. Netherlands got bronze in womens relay in 2018 by finishing 1st in the B final because Canada and Korea were DQed in A final. This might explain some of the "interesting" decisions here in Beijing, since a Chinese official said after that DQ that Korea would pay in 2022. Also, Netherlands got a WR in the B final, creating an even more crazy situation where the WR got bronze. Monzanator 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah. That's why we messed up the semi-final, we knew that this is the only way to win the medal. The Koreans and Canadians didn't realize that qualifying for Final A was a mistake.

China could have taken out a gun, shot the other competitors and blew up the venue, and still made the final. Like the Canadian commentator just said, "The referee has an opportunity to do this................." Chinese commentators spoke about one rule for relays .... It says if you amongst first 2 nations and you have an accidental/innocent fall , according to the rules you should be advanced to the next round. But if you are 3rd or 4th at the time of the fall - not ...... I am not an expert in short track, but ...... 😅😅😅😅😅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
