Great link that.

But in the end, if I am not mistaken the UCI rules state that the photo finish line is the final arbiter, not the paint on the ground. I don't think this is a great injustice - it's a sport and the rules are arbitrary to a great extent (e.g. male riders 180 cm to 189.9 cm tall must use a smaller bike than those 190 cm and taller in time trials - which sucks for those 189.9 cm tall).
