Pretty sure those are the corrected lanes after Kenny appealed?

Five is ok but not ideal for Lyles. He didn’t look right in that semi though.

this is the after
the before (Lyles lane didn't change)
2 - Charamba
3 - Marakawu
4 - Bednarek
5 - Lyles
6 - Tebogo
7 - Knighton
8 - Ogando
9 - Fanbulleh
the changes
Bednarek 4 -> 8
Ogando 8 -> 4
Tebogo 6 -> 7
Knighton 7-> 6
Not sure who kenny was refering to with the "favoritism" comment as Lyles didn't change lanes. Knighton?

Thanks. I guess Kenny prefers to be on the outside of his chief competitors?
But why the need to protest? aren't the heat winners automatically supposed to get 6-7-8. 2nd placers 4-5-9 and then little Qs get 2 and 3?
What am I missing? It made no sense for Ogando to get lane 8 as he was beaten by Bednarek.
It used to be like this on a standard 8-lane track and 8-person final.
1. Top 4 get middle 4 lanes (3-4-5-6). This is determined by the 3 heat winners and the fastest of the 2nd places, and then drawn randomly.
2. The other auto quals get the 2 outside lanes (drawn).
3. the 2 timed quals get the inside lanes (drawn).
To my knowledge, the only change is the top 4 lanes are pushed out one (so now 4-5-6-7), and the auto quals now get 8 and 3. The timed qualifiers still get the inside 2 lanes.
This is a 9-lane track, so add 1 to what I said. Should be decided like this:
1. Top 4 (3 heat winners and the fastest of the 2nd places) get lanes 4-5-6-7, drawn randomly. 2. The other auto quals get 3 and 8 (drawn). 3. the 2 timed quals get 2-3 (drawn).
