00:00There we see Britain out in front, but the Swiss have an overlap, which I guess is pretty ominous.
00:07The Swiss are going to be fine sitting back there.
00:09They're not going to be troubled that Britain are out in front.
00:12They've beaten them three weeks ago.
00:14They've got a fantastic sprint finish.
00:16They know what it will have cost the Brits to stay out in front.
00:20They're going through the thousands.
00:21Sorry, Khalid.
00:22No, no.
00:22I was going to ask you, Martin.
00:24Typical of this British combination at around 1,000 to really go?
00:28Yeah, you'd say Britain has kind of got a profile of a third quarter that's stronger than a lot of crews in the race,
00:34but the fact is they've gone out so quickly, you don't know what it's taken out of their legs.
00:39You know, with an ergo like Tom George, sub 540, he's not the biggest and, you know, heaviest athlete,
00:47so his power-per-weight ratio is phenomenal.
00:50There's Joe O'Brien from Australia, 24-year-old, stroking that boat.
00:55But I hope you're enjoying this transmission.
00:59If you're watching down in Australia, the Swiss are just losing a bit of contact with the British.
01:04That's quite an important push.
01:05You talked about the third quarter, Khalid.
01:07Yeah.
01:08The Brits have just pushed away.
01:09Look at their boat speed, 19 up there on that little graphic.
01:13They are moving away from the Swiss.
01:15Yeah, it's fantastic.
01:16One of the things, talking to Mark Prater, I said, you know, did you see the Brits race in Bleddy?
01:21I saw it.
01:22It was a great race, the Swiss, but he said, I think the Brits are just a bit more looser.
01:26They let the boat come to them a bit more around the front.
01:29They've changed a little bit their technique.
01:31And look at the way they are moving away from the Swiss.
01:34This is a fantastic exhibition of pairs rowing in the third quarter.
01:39I said they wouldn't have much in their legs.
01:41They proved me completely wrong, Colleen.
01:43Switzerland in silver medal.
