The event was won by Kieran Modra and his sighted pilot David Short, representing  Australia.[2] Second on the day were Vladislav Janovjak and Juraj Petrovic of  Slovakia, but they were disqualified and their silver medals forfeited after Petrovic tested positive for the banned glucocorticosteroid, methylprednisolone.
