And as an official I can tell you the rule is it is illegal to take pace or work with another field. Passing would not constitute either and certainly not "racing in"

Did you miss that there were only three women? It's hard to understand a situation, even with a yellow line rule, that a single rider can't pass a group of three safely. Also, since this was the second of five laps, I don't think there wold be any problem scoring.
