How to protect your lead:-)

2006 Turino 500m Gold medalist Wang Meng (in red Chinese uniform) in Asia Winter Game 1500m final, surrounded by three Korean skaters. After Wang was impeded by the leader, whom got DQed for doing it, two other Koreans passed Wang and got the Gold and Silver. This reminds me of the 2006 Anyang World Inline Championship, where one Columbia skater impeded Joel Mantia (and got DQed) and the other one went ahead to get the Gold. There is not much you can do about it (you can't disqualify the person that is not involved) so this will always be controversy.

    FYI, you put the photos from top to bottom in the order 1, 2, 4, 3... the last two are reversed in sequence.
