Btw normally not her fan tactically but I think ELB made the right choice chasing down her teammate. Shirin was clearly cooked and it was just a 10-5s gap and a further 10-5s gap to the SDW group, no way she is keeping that gap for over 10km. Instead they got a situation were Kasia was happy to work in order to guarantee the podium and Shirin could rest a bit in the run in before giving that leadout.

The DS also said Elisa could make the move and Shirin was waiting.
