If any of these runners can't run a sub 20 sec 200, then none of them are going to make the final of the 200 in Paris...they might be lucky to make the semis.

[@zazapkauari1]

Pardon me but the commentary wanted Tortu from Italy to win so bad that winner only gets mentioned after he crosses the line ??? 😂😂

[@2000toinfinity]

DQing sprinters for reacting after the gun is one of the worst rules in sports history.

[@polarbear9404]

Can’t agree more

[@Onyaga]

he didnt react after the gun he clearly springs before the gun and launches after the gun. u cannot spring/move before the gun

[@Robzabest25]

they all reacted after the gun except him...

[@Game_with_me-r6j]

They ruin the focus and exhausts parts of the energy of their competitors to complete a race to make better times.

[@DPMixing]

He’s guessing when the gun is and not reacting to it. It’s physically impossible to react in 0.028 seconds. They’ve done countless scientific studies to justify the reaction time allowance in track being 0.100 seconds. If there is no penalty the athletes would try and guess the start constantly which would lead to delays.

[@eyaliss]

first place of 20.28????? in final??!!! he would be ranked 7th lat the US Olympic trials (last week)....

[@Luca_._]

Yeah this race was pretty slow but consider that Afrifah has a PR of 19.9 ran 3 years ago when he was practically a teen, Tortu in shape (and without mental issues like here) he can run 20.0 if not 19.9 as well as Pablo Mateo the Frenchman (20.03 this as SB and PR). So this race was slow but there are 3 men possibly under 20s and the man who won with a potential of 20.1 highs.

[@raybrown10001]

There’s only one truly world class 200m runner in Europe and that’s Zharnel Hughes. He was planning to run the 100m in Rome but got injured in Jamaica. The rest of the better guys are in the 20.1 - 20.4 bracket.

[@Luca_._]

@@raybrown10001 Tortu ran 20.10s in semis at Worlds in 2022. He has a 9.99s ran at 20yo and can split an anchor leg with 8.8 lows so he got all the potential to go sub 20 which is his lifetime goal right now. I really hope he goes 19.9 this year in Paris and make the final in which he can play all his cards. And without Hughes he could've won this year at Euros it's all a matter of mindset and energy distribution as he ran 20.14 in semis 🙄.

even if you leave the blocks at one millionth of a second after the gun or even exactly o,ooo as the gun goes off that should not be a false start , if you go one millionth of a second before the gun ok call that a false start, the red card for an athlete going any miniscule time after the gun should NEVER be a false start that is pure ludicrous, CHANGE THE RULES

[@SpiritualEyed]

There has definitely been some leniency on the judges side this year, which has been great actually. However, the German brother knew he messed up, even before they called the restart, he already had his hand up like daaang, I messed up. That lane 9 win is amazing, it's giving the Wayde Van Niekerk effect, haha. Timothé noticed thar he didn't see anybody at his left peripheral view for most of the run, that's when he knew he had a great chance to bag this one. By the time they approach the finish line, even if he could start seeing some color on his far left, he knew that he just had to press as hard as he can just to make sure nobody catches up him upon the finish line, and that's what he did.😅 Had his hand up like yes ain't no way this one is ours.😂😅✊🏾

[@pandaplutten2573]
