Yep.

I can't find fault with anyone's ride in that race. But Dominguez's tactics on Crossbow majorly set the tone for everyone else... and because of it, as usual, the winning rider got too much credit and in this case the losing riders certainly too much blame.

In Dominguez' defense, by doing what he did, he was able to defeat both Jackson Bend and Caixa Electronica with the inferior Crossbow.
