the faster one should be the last one

even the bug knows that

 

There are several things to consider when deciding the order of runners. Being good in the curves is important to consider as well. You're making it simpler than it is!

USA is being given a re-run in the Women's 4x100m, has to beat China's 42.70 to qualify

 

Such bs. She threw the baton which means an auto DQ.

Honestly, I have never wondered about that for a second really :p 

 

As in, I have never even thought about it, just like I don't think about why there are no Kyrgyz or Vanuatu or South African members or something. 

 

Demonym for Vanuatu is Ni-Vanuatu :teacher:

Just watched the replay. How could you even say she wasn't impeded? If it was another country besides America you wouldn't have a problem with it.

It should have been either a DQ or a re-run which, if their time was fast enough, would put them in the final but not take anyone out (though I don't know if there are 9 lanes here as often there are). 

 

If they make it, China is royally screwed over.

It's really stupid because there is a 9th lane... but it doesn't extend into the bend :facepalm:

    • Despite total domination by the Norwegian men (and yes, it's exhausting and boring), the accomplishments this weekend of Emil Iversen and Einar Hedegart are worth highlighting, despite them being Norwegian.    Iversen was dropped by the Norwegian national team after the opener in Beitostølen 2 weeks ago and was not taken to Ruka. Instead, he won both the 10k and 20k Interval Classic starts in Gålå in the Norwegian Cup last week, which granted him a spot on the start line in Trondheim. He took full advantage of that opportunity and finished on the podium in the skiathlon, and finished just off the podium in today's 10k Interval Freestyle. This definitely puts his name in serious contention for a spot on the Olympic team, which looked incredibly doubtful just a few days ago.    Einar Hedegart, the 24-year-old biathlete who decided to challenge the stereotype that biathletes are inferior skiers to their cross-country counterparts, just won the 10k Interval Start against all of Norway's best in a de facto Olympic trial.    Yes, it's exhausting seeing nothing but Norwegian flags on the men's side, but there can be excitement just beneath the surface at times.
