And Bridi is in the lead group in the women's race with 2-3km to go (with Cunha and Van Rouwendaal, which is quite amazing considering Van Rouwendaal is barely recovered from mononucleosis).

phelps 6,990 Posted July 21, 2017 #45 Share Posted July 21, 2017 c'mon!!! what a mistake by Furlan! he has just thrown the Gold medal away...he started his forcing too late and came just short... Ruffini instead suddenly just lost his energy and at the end he's only 4th (and should have been disqualified for the move on Drattsev in the last 20 meters, too)... p.s. now the usual rai TV...they're not going to follow the rest of the women's race because of a senseless news program... hopefully they are back at least for the last few meters of the girls...

Reading about a red flag, so that DSQ might be on it's way....swimming 5 hours for a DSQ, damn. By the way: Was this Ruffini's last career race?
