Without a doubt, the final sailing race team secured a victory, with David contributing an exceptionally brilliant performance; however, from a neutral perspective, Lance thought that the others had done well too.

After the match ended, Alberto took Lance and Fodis to an exit nearby, wanting to get autographs, but it seemed that the players were quite tired. Aside from a few who initially signed on the baseball cards, the subsequent spectators missed out on getting signed autographs.

"You could invite him to dinner and get him to sign it for you then," Lance couldn't quite grasp Alberto's thoughts and actions; after all, he could easily obtain David's autograph.
