I would have expected that a simple spell check would have been done, for something like this.

Well, at least they've resolved some key problems with great speed. Thanks, GDC!

The HOME STRETCH for the red ALLIANCE is the one immediately in front of the red ALLIANCE ZONE, and
the HOME STRECTH for the blue ALLIANCE is the one immediately in front of the blue ALLIANCE ZONE.
The HOME STRECTCH is bounded by the FINISH LINE for the ALLIANCE, the LANE DIVIDER/LANE MARKER, the Alliance Station Wall and the Guardrail System.
Have you considered that perhaps the manual is defining three different HOME STRETCHes? "Sorry, ref. We thought we were in the home strecth. Now it's clear that we were in the home strectch. We're sorry; it won't happen again."

All in all, I'm impressed, as always, with the quality of the manual and the speed with which the FIRST leadership moved to correct any errors. Thank you so much!
