The FINA rules say no but not considering the rulebook, should Libby Lenton's 52.99 go in the record books. There has been alot of debate on this in the other thread. What do you think?

Since someone mentioned Thorpe...didn't he swim just a littl bit behind Grant Hackett at the 2001 Worlds in the 800 free? Then on the last 100 out sprint Hackett to win and break the world record? So, should that have counted since he swam just a bit behind Hackett for 700 meters, letting him do more of the work?
Just wondering...
