THats Kind of What I thought too but from What a few People are telling Me that were there is the Gate Crew told Her she had to Ride with The whip or risk recieving a Possible Fine or Suspension or Both for not Carrying A whip during the Race. IMO the starter is a little bit a fault here for not Contacting the Stewards before the Race was Run to let them Know what was going on.
