This happens every year. Why does it take FIRST so long to determine the final results? The first two places are obvious, and even though the 3 and 4 tie, it should be fairly easy to calculate the tie-breaker, i would think.... Are there politcal considerations in the standings as well as many other aspects of the contest? Or are they just really slow to post the results? You would think that with something like the National Results, they would make more of an effort....

I don't think it should take so long. Based on the speed with which results went to the pits, the final results should have been posted by Monday.

I heard from some FIRST people that they are all
taking a 1 week vacation after the National Competition
was finished.

Let's give 'em a break... they deserve it.
