In the semi, Song (a skater from China) gets disqualified, but Apolo is not advanced to the A Final. In the B Final, Apolo and JR are both disqualified for "assistance."

  • It seems to me that Apolo was most likely telling him to go go go, as he's like a mentor to JR. Why would they cheat in the B Final? That makes no sense whatsoever. The real question is why Apolo wasn't moved up when he should have been.

  • alright at the end u see JR smile at Ohno & then Ohno pats him on the shoulder when he walks off so they knew wat they were doing they just didn't care for some reason. JR was probably happy b/c his idol helped him out & let him win

  • yeah... ohno def gave him a push & it was good enough to give him that speed. dont know why he did it he had to have know it'd get them DQ'd

  • disqualified for that "push"? wooow, that's some bs

  • do you have the semi-final with jr? why wouldn't you show that race? sorry...i was so excited to see him race, then it just cut to the b final. :(

  • i see the push!! its tiny tho =.= freakin judge people! he duz push him but really hes not the hulk he cnt make him gain that much speed

  • ohh i see the push!! yeah i agree total bs but apolo duz train like crasy so who knows im not goin against him i luuuvvv him but it did li=ook like he tried to push him pretty hard

  • watch ohnos right hand from 7:04-709...i think thats the "push" they were talking about. but i still agree that it was a bs dq because i dont really think he could've gained much speed at all from that small "push"

  • BS RULING...

  • that's rather gay is it not? yeah life ain't fair, but it's a competition designed to fairly test a competitor's skills, that's why you can't just grab your opponent by the nuts and score first place. so how was it apolo's fault for being tackled off the course?
