It's not the same picture. - Can't you see in the first one, Britain gets a good start, but then in the second you can see the Germans and Spanish Catching it.
The third shows the Germans slick overtaking skills to outmanouver both and take the lead while the forth shows a tightly packed field just behind GB.
Then if you look closely at 5, you can see how the Brits panic when the going gets tough, as they start swinging the back end round.
Then the last photo expertly captures the moment where Britain collides with Uzbeckistan, as the rest of the field hurtles past them both....
True story.

The Uzbek's have shown all land locked countries that it's quite feasible to have a submarine force. Despite some obvious disadvantages if a nation puts it's mind to it they can be overcome.
e.g. as this picture shows movement across rough terrain was a problem
As shown here this was overcome with the introduction of wheels , a simple but quite brilliant modification .
Despite this advance, one of the key elements of a submarines abilities, i.e. the ability to submerge, was still proving to be a seemingly insurmountable obstacle as this picture demonstrates.
However once again the Uzbek's use of simple but brilliant logic solved the problem. Each submarine was given a detachment of young naval pioneers
When the order to "dive" was given these brave but ultimately expendable pioneers simply buried the submarine.
A bonus benefit from this marvellous outside the box thinking was that the submarine became virtually impervious to attacks from depth charges, land mines however have become a problem but one that given their ingenuity the Uzbek's will eventually solve.
