She said she panicked when Boer got off to a great start. "I built my second corner really well anyway to try and chase her down," Nesbitt said. "I had a really good first lap off of that. The second lap I think I was sitting on my heel. I think I had a couple of slips. "My coach said I had a pretty good race considering I almost fell. I dont think it was that dramatic." Coach Xiuli Wang said Nesbitt almost went down with 250 metres to go. "She had lots of speed," Wang said. "She wasnt holding well, but she got back and finished the race strong. Even if it wasnt a perfect race, shes in the elite and on a higher level." Nesbitt clinched the womens Grand World Cup earlier this month.
