World Championship Athletics

The yank ran over the line and you're not allowed to do that.

err, again, no he didn't

the D Q was for the baton being passed prior to it entering the passing zone

Oh, ok.

I thought it was for the baton being passed after it leaving the passing zone.
For some reason the beebs coverage of this incident was sparse

this is the changeover in question. the baton hasn't quite reached the passing zone (starts at the dotted line) but then it hasn't quite touched the next runers hand yet

That's an interesting race !!!

Bronze for Dobriskey after being impeded but the winner may be chucked oot.
