Can anyone who is a scholar of racing history give an example of an instance where someone wearing a skinsuit won by such a slim margin that the suit could be credited? I think the problem with coming up with such an example is that in DH racing there are so many factors it would be hard to give that credit to a skinsuit alone. Did the losing rider have a slight line difference that cost .1 seconds? Did they pedal a little less in one section?
I think it's the riders choice and it should be left alone. As someone has already said, if you're going to regulate that miniscule advantage what's next? Tire size? Suspension travel/type?
