It is no longer UCI legal to use those tactics in qualifying. Hence why everyone is complaining, and why they only broadcast the top 20 or so qualifying racers.

Nah, that was maybe a top ten run. They don't give it all in qualifying, and people like Gwin don't even ride the same lines. They leave about 3-5 seconds on the table for race runs.

When used to a clipless pedal, there is no the wasted time clipping back in after a difficult turn. In fact, it's easier because one's foot goes back to where it should be. It takes some time to get used to though. I rode flats for 5 years and have been clipless for 2 seasons now. I've gotten much faster as I've become one with the bike.
