Europeans run the sport.
JI created the situation and he did gain an advantage by continuing his forward momentum for multiple steps on the inside of the track.

DO NOT DQ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This final is already full of frauds and dopers. Excluding this clean prodigy would be downright criminal.
Yes, there was an advantage gained. There were 200 meters left. He didnt have to run as far as he would have because a) he cut part of the turn and b) if he hadn't cut the turn, he would have have to either stay in the back or go way wide.
Seeing them enforce the steeple rules, I want this to be enforced. Brits should protest as then Butcharrt gets in. I'll be SHOCKED if Brits don't protest and Butchart doesn't get in.
Remember didn't another Ingebrigtsen get DQd from Euros for exactly the same thing? What race was that?
This would make sense if he just decided to do this willingly. He was being bumped and jostled. He did not try to "pass on the inside" -- he lost balance.
IAAF website shows him with a big Q!!!!!!

well since coe(vett) is in the need of the next great white hope, no way in hell would the DQ happen. they are trying to make track great again...ie more whites winning medals
Finland was really good in the early-70s.
Of course Ingebrigtsens are untouchable. But at least they DQed the real villain, Busby from Aruba.
Fully expect a British protest since Butchart would get in if JI gets the DQ
Butchart is a coward and a bully if he attempts such an action.
Want to make the final? Run faster.
What's up with dos Santos' head/hair?
Anyone see that someone in the first heat ran a PB of 18:10??
Maybe the one time I poke fun at someone's time and won't hear the "oh you could do better?" comment. Don't think that guy should be running at worlds.

3 runners from same family in a final then, surely a first in a WCH?
Impressed by Henrik running just 6 secs behind his PB in these conditions and with his niggling injuries.
Watch him not recover properly and finish dfl in the final.
Other take aways:
Horrendous result by Wanders.
No brits in the final.
Filip looked surprisingly strong.
2 canadians in the final.
True as expected.

I think he was one of the IAAF invites to developing federations, or whatever they call it.
Samba is back - ran 49.08 to win his 400H heat.

Haha... You think? running almost 5 mins slower than the standard and all.. :)
Countries with no qualified athlete can get ONE non-qualified athlete and they are usually in the track events because the space for the field events is more limited. The standard is irrelevant then, but usually they are more like 15:00 runners, not 18 min.
Jakob DQ
NBC Sports Gold and NBCSN are saying Jakob I has been DQed
shouldn't the countries who use their freebie entry be forced to use it in the 100m so there's only an extra few seconds added to one heat (not 4 minutes and it doesn't interfere with the other runners by not running on the outside of the track)?
As an official, I say wrote:
Letter of the law would be
Jakob and Chelimo DQ.
I think it's at the discretion of IAAF which unqualified they admit. Most are probably in lane races 100-400, but some are also in longer track races.
