I saw that and was pretty surprised. I guess he thought his teammate Spittal would give him room, but looked to me like Spittal was intent on closing the gap. I thought Coutts probably could've fallen off and avoided a collision with both the committee boat and the other boats in the vicinity. Of course, this is a reaching start, and these boats travel very quickly, so your reaction time has to be right on point.
