Having finished behind rider 814, I was surprised to see 4 intervening riders. I took a look back through the full race video and was able to document the following:

  • I finished behind rider 806--he passed me on the first lap
  • I finished behind rider 824--he passed me on the first lap
  • I finished right behind rider 814--he must have trailed riders 806 and 824; he wasn't lapped, but I was lapped in the last 5-10 meters
  • I finished ahead of rider 816--I passed him on lap 4
  • I finished ahead of rider 825--I passed him on the last lap
So, I may have finished at least one place higher, and perhaps two--I don't know how I did against rider 829.
