Then Bernardini should have been able to win despite the premature move if he was so good. I've watched the race plenty of times. Castellano made an early move out of a foolish fear that Lava Man would make his typical mid-turn move before him and get the jump. If Bernardini was good enough he would have won despite the premature move like Invasor did in the Whitney or at the very least put up a fight. Instead he let Invasor blow by him like he was standing still. Bernardini was no faster than Invasor coming into the Classic and lost to him head to head.
