Yes it doesn't make sense when it's an individual sport. The best 3 individuals should be there to take out the medals regardless of their nationality.

But I also meant the stuff like the road cycling where GB got shafted and the points race in the omnium, where a bunch of no-hopers generally end up lapping the rest of the field. I'm glad it got removed as an individual event.
