Someone made the point on TV, the starter played a big role in the outcome of the race. He effectively made it almost a 2m2f race by letting them go so far ahead of the tape. Anything whose stamina was ebbing late was impacted by that. It looked to me like it affected EID more than anything else. EID also lost a shoe during the race.

Hope that's not running salt in anyone's wounds.
