he clearly burned himself down at the last 2 recounts he already lost 2 seconds fro mthe lead .. so he went strong but lost power and probably exhausted himself so much that he could not continue riding .. I don´t thing matelka was that lucky he just went stable speed and increaed in the end. Atkinson tried to go full on and it went terribly wrong.
