Top 2 to FA final. Others to FB final.
Prediction
GER and AUS seem to have the edge over RUS in advancing to the FA final, and NED seems
way off their pace. But RUS shows speed to lead everyone to the 1000 meter mark and be
even or ahead with 500 to go. So GER and AUS will have to go through RUS somewhere after
the halfway mark to both advance to the FA final.
