By the way, the IAAF electronically recorded reaction times show that Drummond went BEFORE Powell, not the other way around.
Drummond (USA) with 0.052 sec and Assafa Powell (JAM) 0.086. The accepted reaction time is 0.100 sec.
Not that the rule makes any distinction anyway- they were both DQ'd.
But even if the rule WERE worded such that the 'first to go is the only one DQ'd' it would appear to have been Drummond who have been given the heave-ho, not Powell!
Okay Jon, back in your court. Were the starting blocks sending bad signals too?
