I agree with this normally but in this case they have a legitimate point. The gate people should have had the correct equipment. They have extra whips should a problem occurs and they should be held partially responcible for giving her the incorrect equipment. The track itself failure to supply proper equipment must be considered in the ruling. To me its like when the ref blows the call, sorry we did but you can't change everything back. Let the outcome stand.
