Not even remotely. He stumbled very briefly and hardly " almost went down ".

I suggest a viewing of the replay....pan and head-on as you are offering a massively distorted view of what actually took place.

Quite frankly I see tougher trips on a regular day to day basis. Trips are about taking everything that happens in a race into account, both individually and as a whole, and not about necessarily focusing on one specific incident. The bottom line is the brief trouble Invasor encountered did not massively supercede all the good things that happened to him in the race.
