Sireau v Bos is the standout matchup of the round, should be exciting to watch

With Bos in this form, I doubt it will be exciting |

I fear Bos is out... this sireau is really fast.
Mulder won his 1/8 final at least Bos time now

Bos is improving, but I doubt this form will be enough for gold.
With his tactical moves, he might just get a medal though. |

The Malaysian Awang just won his repechage in a tight finish over Nimke - he crossed the line doing a Wheelie!

Just incase the Danes were starting to gain a little confidence, Britain do that! Awesome time, and they can go quicker in the final I have no doubt.

Nope, they hadnt. In their most recent time they came close, but 'only' took the 3rd best time in history. Behind the WR of Britain and OR of Australia. Now its the 4th best time in history thanks to Britains superb new time

I was sure it said 3.57 or so at the start, but I must have seen wrong.

Heres the list
WR+OR - Great Britain - Beijing 2008 - 3:55.205
Former WR - Great Britain - Manchester 2008 - 3:56.322
Former OR - Australia - Athens 2004 - 3:56.610
Denmark - Beijing 2008 - 3:56.831
Im expecting both teams to go quicker in the Final - they may even set the 2 fastest times ever.
