Quoted for emphasis. Doesn't just apply in a finish, either. I've lost a lot of ground, and cost myself a lot of energy, by failing to jump past the wheel ahead as soon as it started to drop off the pace...
This is where knowing the competition going into a race is important. Do not get on a bad wheel in the first place. This is easier said than done and why certain wheels are hotly contested by other racers.
