Ok, so the 3* laps represents some mix up on the course. And thus some with longer times were actually the winners?
Is there any official “Stumpjumpers” explanation anywhere?
Brian, the ones that completed the full course, designated by a specific check point marking, were marked with a 3rd lap. A corner was blown and the pack followed in the dust missing a loop the leaders did complete. That moved those leaders in front of the main pack that did miss the loop.
What does the 3* on lap count mean?
