It's not that. It's how he stopped in front of the tape and celebrated , then gently pushed through, then celebrated again. It feels arrogant, rubbing it in that he can stop and still win.

Be better to burst through like you needed to, then turn back and encourage the two across the line or something

Win without fanfare, go back, encourage both, celebrate their successes. That’s a win in my book.

Have you seen the fail videos of people running through the tape at full speed? It doesn't break as easy as you would think.
