you mad bro? :)

She crossed the line first
-
The goal is to get across the line. Diving is just a bigger step. Totally fair in my mind.
-
If Felix dove she still would have lost.
The effort of diving slows your stride but it extends your torso.
So it's break even. -
Was totally a fall, not an intentional dive. Lol. but yeah, it's totally fair.
-
i guess everyone should start diving across the line then lol

Yes I understand that but then why doesn't everyone dive?
I thought that was illegal -
She might have won by more if she hadn't stumbled and had to dive.

The same reason why MLB players don't dive into 1st; they run through it. It's faster. Also, I'm sure diving onto the track probably HURTS. -
Upon further review Felix lost because the other tuner stretched out her arms at the line.
How is that legal?! -

Chip is on the torso. Arms don't matter. -

I agree, if you dont get a foot down after the finish line you should be measured at your hips not your furthest forward shoulder -
It is absolute BS, a trash move, especially from a woman
-
Felix should learn to dive. In a sprint, a dive across the line offers over a tenth second advantage.
-
you are a fvcking moron.
it is the front of the torso (whether that be the chest or the shoulder if someone leans or dives like this) that determines placing. arms dont matter -

Yeah, it's not hands, it's the head.
