I did recover and hopefully the future will be brighter." said Gold medal winner ZHIOU<br /><br />Egor SHAROV, silver medallist, said "I thought I had the race all under control. It was a bad race because I think I should have won. I had a plan. I was in the lead at the last 100m. I don't know why I didn't keep the lead (in the final straight). I destroyed my plan."<br /><br />The finish was so close that Bronze medallist David DEVINE (GBR) said "I had to go up to an official to find out where I'd come. When he told me, I was made up."<br /><br />For further information, please visit http://www.paralympic.org.
