*) Susie Cheetham entered a protest against the top three finishers getting a significant benefit from drafting and motor pacing (see her tweet). As a result of her protest, the results were changed, and her finish time was reduced by five minutes. In early October, the Austrian Federation ruled based on a protest by WTC that there was no basis in the rules for such a time bonus and re-instated Susie’s original time.
