Top 3 to semi-finals. 4th crew eliminated from Olympic competition.Prediction
ROM and YUG should qualify easily for the semi-finals. The following prediction race
report is a mix of the times which these 5 crews had in their heat races. The real race
her will be betwee EGY and POL for the third semi-final qualifying spot. Notice from the
following prediction report that the splits in each 500 for EGY and POL all the way down
the course are almost the same. These two crews are projected to be dead even with each
other at both the 1000 meter mark and with 500 meters to go. These crews were 9th (EGY)
and 10th(POL) at the 1999 Worlds, so give the edge to EGY to advance in this one.
The lanes are not known at this point.
