Crazy xc finish in Spain. Runner slams into finishing clock. DQ or no DQ? (Video)

I've found the results. #117 7 Yahya AOUINA EL KARBOUBI - the guy who was swerving everywhere and eventually hit the clock - was correctly DQd.

So #105 - Abderrahman EL KHAYAMI EL KOM -was your winner, #89 -Ignacio FONTES GARCIA-BALIBRE - was 2nd.

He was dq'd for swerving and blocking the guy behind him and not for banging into the clock. This makes your headline misleading...but it's what this site does.

I didn't look ahead for the answer, but light blue guy should get DQd for cutting off the one guy then grabbing at the other guy. Green singlet wins.

No no no. Clock banging is strictly prohibited. He banged that clock like a drum. Rule 11.4b2a explicitly describes what activity constitutes clock banging and the punishment which ensues. Mommas don’t let your babies grow up to be clock bangers is a popular song for a reason.

Stop the press until this is overturned

That clock was sticking way too far into the finishing straight.

Green was swerving and blocking the DQ'd which is why the DQ'd guy grabbed at him. The winner in green should be DQ'd since light blue was DQ'd for the same thing, and guy in green had no excuse, he wasn't trying to get around and pass someone and block somebody behind along the way.

Wow, runner 117. What a d*** move.

Luckily, both Yahya AOUINA EL KARBOUBI and Abderrahman EL KHAYAMI EL KOM are Spanish.
