> "I'm still amazed at how that race situation came about," Swings said, disappointed, after the Olympic mass start final. "It didn't even look like an attack. Bergsma didn't exactly get away with it. Jordan Stolz was in the lead at that moment, but decided not to join. He's a teammate of Bergsma's outside of the Olympics, of course. Perhaps that played a role. We'll never know, but it wouldn't be the first time this year. We had agreed with our team (Team IKO) beforehand that we would ride for our country, because the Games are under scrutiny. Perhaps other teams feel differently."
> The veteran could hardly contain his anger. "In the Netherlands, they might write that I'm a sore loser, but I'm usually not. It's just frustrating how that attack came about and that afterward, we, the Belgians, were the only country to skate behind the leaders. It's incomprehensible that the other countries didn't do anything. Giovannini skated cleanly for bronze, and he even took it. We skated for gold."
Hahaha SEETHING. Sounds like I am hearing Remco Excusenepoel again
