As expected - to their credit, they went sub-33, which they've generally not done at sea-level in this cycle (the James of 2013 would still have made a difference today, I'm sure).
The Guardian claimed they needed to be two places ahead of France today for a Rio berth; well, they are, but apparently it's not enough.

We won't know the full breakdown until Monday, I guess.
CHN v RUS could produce the first ever sub-32 later tonight...

Generally speaking, not a surprise as man three has been a disaster throughout this cycle (above 13.5 again). That said, what did surprise me was that they came sixth even though Hindes opened with 17.030 (!) - the fastest-ever opening lap at sea-level, FFS.
Will interesting to see if the sea-level best of 42.6 is threatened by NZL or NED.
