Rare false start in Lausanne. VanderWesten.

Oliver stuns Robles, looks like Robles eased up....hit last hurdle

[EPelle]

That last race was very close between these two. This was sweet revenge for Oliver.

[The Captain]

Nothing rare about a van der Westen false start. He clearly does it deliberately.

[spy]

Wow! Robles nicked number 8 and it was enough to throw him off. Winner was Oliver in 13.02, Robles 13.11.

Photo reading taking too long. We need the Lynx crew from the US!

[spy]

False starts, in general, are rare in Lausanne. Rather quick guns here. I noticed it two years ago. Hasn't changed.

TV people like that.

[The Captain]

That's as maybe, van der Westen will always find a way ...

robles hit the last 2 hurdles, trail leg on 2nd to last, which lost him his rythm, then lead on the last hurdle, he would have been sub 13.

oliver got 13.02 and robles 13.17

Never mind a sub-13. He was about 2 meters ahead of Oliver. That could have been a WR!

??!! I was watching on JustinTV and in the replays it looked like R had half a meter on O as they approached the 8th and O was closing! {still think R would have won on the run-in). R would have been sub-13, but not by much.

[eldrick]

they are probably going maybe 0.90s speed at the end

if it was 2m. that gives 0.18s, which subtracted from oliver's time of 13.02 -> ~ 12.84 albeit oliver always closes at the end, so it would be slower than that

I don't think so, Oliver was catching up a little bit even before Robles stepped into the eighth hurdle. However, when Robles did, the race was over. I don't recall him stepping into a hurdle, now it's happened twice in the same race. Had he not lost his rhythm I think it could have been 12.95 at best.
