Australia just smashed that heat. GB finished third. kind of slow, but they also have the womens fours to go so maybe just conserving energy?

USA led most of the way in the men's 8 but Germany wins heat 1. USA will have to race the repechage to make the final.

Yes, most countries have separate rowers for each event. GB probably just pulled up to save it for the rep. I am shocked at how few competitors there are this year. I wonder how long they can keep rowing in the Olys

they do but they specifically said that one of the rowers was on the 8 team.
It does happen. One of my friends’ cousin was an Olympic kayaker. He was competing in the K2 and the person in his kayak was also competing in the K1. Led to some friction when it became obvious his teammate cared about the K1 and not so much about the K2 event so he could conserve energy.
