Great controlled swim by Pellegrini. She took almost 4 seconds off the Swede in the last 100 and about 2 seconds in the last lap. If you like this sort of thing, search 15 year old Ian Thorpe winning his first individual World Title - he did the same thing to Grant Hackett in the last 100m (last 50 really) of the 400m in the 1998 World Championships. You wonder where these freakish swimmers get a finish like that against the world's best.
Pellegrini had only the third fastest split in this relay with Sjostrom swimming the fastest split by far. The Swedish anchor was so slow she made Pellegrini look faster than she was.
@@alpinoalpini3849 I'm sorry if I didn't find a 1:56.50 split unbelievable. The only split in the race worthy of such a superlative was Sjostrom's 1:53.64.
Yeah that's why Pellegrini still keep the 200m freestyle world record and won again the world gold medal even on 2019 (at the age of 31), with Sjöström third who needed the oxygene at the end of the race. Hahahahaha
Yes well - a comment on women's swimming, counter-signed by Wang Luna, Yi Zhang, Huijue Cai and Wei Wang???? Not sure the CCP has much credibility when talking about women's aquatic sports ...
One of the best races I have seen in my entire life
7 swimmers vs 1 speedboat.
That was one hell of a race,... I was on the edge of my seat the whole race. WOW!
Pride of Italy!
When you break the turbo boost and enter hyperdrive

Yes it is, if you talk about this swim.
Federica had a 1:56 half here.
The swedish swimmer had a split like a junior, with 2:01 and a half.
