Donavan Brazier reinstated

The telecast later showed a very brief moment where Brazier stepped on the inside line. Maybe one step.

I also thought that this rule had been changed recently to give the athletes second chances under certain conditions.

Thanks for posting this, and you are correct about everything you said.

There were a ton of runners who were DQ'd yesterday for lane infractions, and the ONLY runner who gets reinstated, a DAY LATER, just happens to be one of NIKE's top runners?

Sounds fishy to me.

20 hours later! He could have been on a plane back home by then.

Do you know why Brazier was DQ'd?

The article states "The way the system works is that an official on the track will signal a foul as the violation happens. This is why Brazier was initially DQ’d."

If this is true, then why wasn't Brazier told about the disqualification BEFORE he dropped out of the 800?

That is an unusual image, with the inside leg stepping on the outside line. It seems there has to be another step on the line by the outer leg to make that happen. Coming off the curve doesn't seem to be enough to cause that type of continued motion outward. Are there images showing the outside leg before and after that misstep?

STAY IN YO LANE

and now he will run the 400m in Serbia! 46.14 for 2nd behind the multitalented Trevor Bassitt

He stepped on the inside line .DQ . officials had to determine how spin this, and it was spin.

Brazier with the 2nd fastest reaction at 0.171

Seriously though, he closed in 23.97 while running a few extra meters! I don’t see how Brazier doesn’t break 45 this season.

Good stuff Wejo very excited. I love watching him run the 400m it shows that this guy is truly incredible. As a distance guy I could move down as far as an 800m and have some fun. Brazier could probably move down to a 200m and have a good time.

Ever heard of Nike money? 💰

Not in the Nike power world!

It pays to be sponsored by Nike.

He'd probably fly right off the track!

The replay is on peacocktv (see day 2 replay), which I still have a $5 subscription for from watching the Winter Olympics. That step that you saw was very close to the inside line, but didn't actually touch the line. His forefoot and arch were clearly in the lane, and the heel of the same foot almost touched the inside line, but didn't actually contact the line. Perhaps because he runs on his forefoot and his heel doesn't always touch the ground or perhaps it was just inside, but at no point did his foot overlap the line in the video. His steps before and after that were clearly in his lane.

*it's 1 minute into the peacock tv day 2 replay. Correction, his heel does overlap the line, but its not clear that his heel contacts the ground onto the line, so right call to reverse the DQ.
