Yes jakob and Kerr killed eachother off a bit . Jakob killed himself the most by running at suicidal pace in blistering hear so obviously he also got no draft , Kerr killed himself a bit by following Jakob’s suicidal pace from the gun and then running a bit in lane 2 when overtaking Cheruiyot and then running a lot in lane 2 when trying to overtake ingebrigsten. Yes hocker did get lucky that Ingebrigtsen moved to the side because he got to hug the final curve all the way around without the usual disadvantage of being trapped. This meant that Kerr and ingebrigsten had to run even further. They were in lane 2 quite some way. I still think Jakob has the fastest time trial time then Kerr and then probably a draw between nuguse and hocker at this point. Cole and nuguse just tactically ran that race much better. Jakob and Kerr were only focused on eachother. Maybe ingebrigsten overstretched himself with the doing the 5000m as well and maybe tried to squeeze in some 5000m tracing before the Olympics which could have negatively affected his 1500m.
