If he had known jakob was fully healthy he wouldn’t have even started the race, just like pre last year (ducked the diamond league final!!) and world indoors (in his home europoor country!!!) until jakob dropped out
I will admit that Jakob was clearly beat and I don't think he could've won, at all... But it almost looked like he didn't even try to win the last 100m? He never moved wide, at all, and looked calm and content (double thumbs up) getting 2nd. Again, don't think he could've won, but it almost looked like he wanted to use Kerr (or anyone) to time trial this/break the wind?
(Third time disclaimer: I don't think he could've won today)
Jakob looked a bit flat. Kerr obviously in the shape of his life. Still leaning Jakob come August but it will be a hell of a race again. Lived up to the hype!

I think the thumbs up was just him being a bit sheepish that he lost in that way so comprehensively.
