This race was perfectly built up. The Canadians chose a suicide tactic: they had such a first 500 metres it was obvious it wasn’t possible to continue. Their heat used a lot of energy, but they were able to recover from it. They are really professional athletes. We don’t know what will happen. For these two guys this is really a gift. After three years of (HIRLING’s) retirement from the sport, they began to row together again less than a year ago. They have expectations, they want to give their maximum here.
