The only person in the stadium who understood Yang Jingru's tactic was the guy who rang the final lap bell.

[@Bydey]

The commentator didn't have a clue what was going on lol. Even after the fact he didn't realize that they all misread the final lap and stuck theor skates put while the other Chinese lady kept skating 😂

[@brockabaddy985]

Nah, only the guy who rang the lap bell was counting.

[@MasDik27]

don't forget to shout out Li jinzi, he just push the speed on 7 lap to go just for the group trigerred, than forget they -1 lap and just heard bell. what a team strat.

[@gnougnougnou7112]

But.. They did one extra lap, just in case, even after the 2nd Chinese won

[@johnwu1091]

Her teammate knew for sure :)

[@heysoph.9]

There's nothing more disappointing than the cameraman not showing us the most dramatic last lap ever when the Chinese skater over takes every one to get 2nd when they thought they'd all finished

[@ishaqismail6652]

Even the cameraman was confused, i think 😂 had absolutely no idea wth is going on

[@aftereffects00]

Actually the camera guy is confused too about this match :D

[@DCT-gs8lx]

The reason probably is because the cameraman needs to keep the camera at the finish line when the winner crosses the finish line.

[@garfindlhopemacher3559]

yes, there is. The commentator basically not mentioning yang again after she lapped again and does not seem to get at all what's happening (with last lap bell not being for the other skaters and the way the other chinese securing 2nd)

[@paygeturnermusic]

Mans thought the race was over so did the others who didn’t finish the race 😂😂😂

[@charybdisfgl2048]

Funny how nobody, not even the commentator noticed there was one more lap to go. He already said “What a race that was” even though 2 medals where still up for grabs.

[@red-hairedshanks3366]

[@tiredcoconut5892]

Chinese team already knew they're gonna win when nobody chases Yang. They planned it and practiced it. Yang's position at the back of the race confuses all other competitors. Genius play.

[@larsschwurack963]

they have been lapped, how can they be confused

[@corticorti4531]

Probably bc of tunnel vision

[@ruarika3112]

​@@larsschwurack963they are confused can't you see. When the last bell rang, they thought it was the last lap. It was the last lap only for the Chine Chinese player. Thats why the others stuck out their legs thinking its the last lap. They are programmed so much so they think its the last lap when they hear the bell

[@Sokak91]

In a tight-circuit race it was a brilliant tactic because the rest of the field will dismiss an early charge thinking to catch up, but if she is allowed to reach the end of the pack she gets the full drafting benefit from everyone, and the confusion factor caused by the last lap bell for her teammate to "play along" then push forward to claim silver when others think it's over? Absolute brilliance.

[@adibrazman]

2:37:59 I dont mind the other skater confuse cause she heard the bell but even the cameraman is confused there.

[@TheLittlebobwales]

Even the highlights editor for the official Olympics website was confused as it doesn't show ANYONE crossing the finishing line! Cuts out at about 2:30 before the "trailing" Yang crosses and then never comes back! Glad it is all shown in full here!

[@stanbimi]

(2:32:16) This is the most surprising tactical race!

[@HLiao-ei9bh]

[@perlkingneo]

Only the Korean almost forgot one more lap to end the game, she actually has the chance to win the brown medal, unfortunately she has to take the lessen.

[@heysoph.9]

The fact the camera director even forgot and didn't pan the camera and show the last lap properly !!! I want to see what happened!!

[@aftereffects00]

@@heysoph.9 Actually the camera guy is confused too about this match :D

[@BadCyborgMovies]

2:38:08 After most of the trailing skaters finally finish (having been mistaken _last_ time around), the fun is still not over. On the back straight Omelchuk and Szigeti suddenly start up again, to finish _another_ lap! With an equally confused Vegi in tow, looks like. Maybe it was because they saw Chung ahead of them, still going. But Chung actually _was_ still racing, having previously fallen at the line when mistakenly stretching to 'finish'.

[@theglobaltruthseeker]

The last time I used the rabbit tactic in a running track event at school, the race adjudicator didnt notice I was a lap ahead and I was just awarded last place.

[@anotheran]

Everyone thought the bell was to tell them that there was another lap, but in fact the bell was to remind the last one, because she was one lap ahead of time. At this time, everyone was confused, including the cameraman, and only the Chinese team was awake.

That was the reason they were fooled so bad and the coaches were all alerted. The players didn’t have enough experience of team tactics like this.

You have less chances to do the youth Olympics again than you would at the "real" one. That's one expensive lesson.

The Dutch women’s road cycling team (the best in the world, supposedly) lost track of how many competitors were in front of them at the Olympics, and then did a victory celebration for silver. People rely on coaches to think for them.

I looked for this to hear the commentary, to hear the mind games and hype as it happened. But even the commentator seemed confused... About the tactic, that was true teamwork. Li Jinzi basically agreed to hand the gold to her teammate.

[@细雨徐]

不是的，这个战术是杨放弃排名把对手拖到疲惫，无力去争夺第一名，保证李绝对能获得第一名。只是对手并没有被欺骗，甚至根本不在意杨。奇怪的是他们竟然还同时忘记了杨赢了他们一整圈。结果就是这样了，杨很轻松的拿到了金牌。对手送给李一个银牌。想想都好笑。

Final A 2:32:20 She was clearly dominating the competition and helped her teammate both times.

[@kangruth]

I enjoyed the men's final, more entertaining and competitive. Wow, I can't believe that these youngsters can handle this extreme pressure so well. I'm not sure if the Chinesewomen's tactic will work in the adults' Olympics, although it's surprising to see a different winning tactic. Everyone did their best! 🎉

[@zaqc5615]

No, the premise of the Rabbit Tactics is that the first-place player is very confident in her own physical fitness and ability. Otherwise, consuming too much energy will only cause her to be slowly surpassed in subsequent games. But in the adult category, this kind of ability to surpass one lap is too difficult. Forcing this tactic will only make you the last place. Some people may ask, since you have the strength to do this tactic, you should also have the strength to take first place. So what is the significance of this tactic? The answer is to help teammates get second place. When others mistakenly thought it was the last lap, only her teammate clearly understood the situation, so the teammate had the "advantage" to get second place.

[@ziyou2063]

Nope it can't happen It is a mistake by Hungarian. It should be somebody to follow up on the one who sprint at first, especially some team who has two participants. This won't happen to the winter Olympics

After correctly pointing out that everyone forgot about the lead skater the commentaor had no clue at the end that the race for 2nd place required another lap.

[@juliomendez1177]

Someone who knows about this sport, why didnt they also sprint when yang did? They all kinda accepted the 1st place was hers since the beginning?

[@aristomichael]

It looked like they all were following a similar strategy of preserving energy and position for the last few laps which is usually the most competitive. The constant switching of positions kept them busy and forget someone went past them in the first few laps. When the bell rang some of them including the cameraman thought this was the last lap for everyone. But it was the last lap for yang. Others had 2 laps to go. Once the lap was over, they were relaxing a bit instead of continuing to speed up. Before they realized and caught up to the speed, the second Chinese athlete took the lead. Thus they secured both first and second position

[@utavinzo9481]

That's the problem

[@ryanbeattie2741]

It's a battle of energy and utilizing energy correctly. If 2-3 skaters followed the Chinese skater and they clipped a skate, fell, and knocked themselves out of the race, then it would be a totally different outcome. Heck, the Chinese girl who did the rabbit strategy could have fallen and knocked herself out, and this would have gone down as the dumbest strategy ever. So just like any trick play in sports, they all look dumb on paper until someone pulls it off, and then they are marked down in the records books as amazing athletes

[@Hheyjudde]

real winner 😅 2:38:01

[@Nightmeri]

The rabbit tactic worked well because after she expelled all that energy lapping everyone, she stayed in the back to catch the wind draft and literally coasted to victory. Bravo.

[@jurinaissance]

while all the other skaters were tunnel-visioned at the front (save for her teammate), she's observing them from the back, and the audience probably isn't even focused at the front but observing her at the rear 😭 it's crazy how tunneled their vision is, it became a bane to them, they forgot that she may have just lapped them or maybe they just hoped she accidentally slid away. and we as the audience know what's going on coz we see the whole thing.

[@yasir00032]

She outplayed them all

[@BingHanGoh]

Weird that all the other finalists forget that they are one lap behind???

[@chinpinhon]

All the others except the other Chinese skater

[@aristomichael]

I think they were all confused by the final lap bell except the Chinese and Korean skaters. The Chinese skater went on to take the 2nd spot. The Korean Skater realized it late and got the last position.

[@utavinzo9481]

That's the problem, memory disappeared in a race

[@ryanbeattie2741]

It not so much that they forgot. It just so many things could happen. She could have fallen or they could have fallen themselves trying to catch her. It's a battle of energy and utilizing energy correctly. If 2-3 skaters followed the Chinese skater and they clipped a skate, fell, and knocked themselves out of the race, then it would be a totally different outcome.
