Has Italy lost gold/silver because of this?

Probabily the silver. Australia was too far from us

I really don't understand how GB wasn't DQed there.

 hasn’t been DSQ’d according to the results graphic, but I don’t see how they can avoid a DSQ.

Completely new tactic by GB, just collide with your opponents and take them out of the race ...

Also there must be some brexit joke in there ...

I thought that maybe the brits got confused because people in Japan drive on the right side of the road, but then i did some research and actually people also drive on the left side of the road in Japan too, so no excuse there.

The most obvious explanation: The brits wanted to take revenge for the lost final of the european football championships by taking out Italy, but of course they missed (as usual).

I can't understand why Great Britain wasn't DSQ. This is completely absurd.

They were having problems earlier, someone must have stopped rowing.

I have a feeling this crew will have changes ASAP. Someone cocked up physically big time there.

But they did interfere, which is the rule.

Italy should be relegated. They got an adrenaline kick when they saw the british boat approaching them, without that extra kick they would have been slower.
