Their leading racer had four identical start times in four races - 4.47 seconds. That is impossible and never happens. Well played Russia! Rot on!

quite possible. as possible as two skiers going down a 2.7k hill and achieving the exact same time.

to much anti ruski ignorance in these Olympics, peeps be jelly they nations to poor to get Olympics.

It was his home run, he's done it 1000% more times than any other athlete and more likely had it down to a fine science.

What, the Russians were caught cheating at the Olympics? Say it ain't so!

Сюрприз!

It will happen from time to time. As much as I can imagine the normal start time of an athlete should be always in the same range of maybe 0.05 seconds. Let's say for this athelete it was to expect to get a time of 4.45-4.49 as start time if nothing unusual happens. that means that after 4 starts, the chance to have 4x the same time is like 1:125.

there were how many starters? 25? that means with 25 starters this should happen in every fifth race to one athlete.

whoever told you that it has to be faked  just because of the similar times should come with something better. 

Russians should stick to this:

is possible.

Go Russia!

Wait, guys, you're not supposed to focus on this. Focus on the ring that didn't open up in the Opening Ceremony!

It is not just possible. It is statistically likely to happen at some stage, especially for atheletes on well known courses for them. They would only ever range in times by a very small sub 10 ms time even when being a little inconsistent, an athelete performing consistently at their peak will range even less.
