That's not what the court found. They found he had an advantage at speed in a straight line, but had a disadvange starting and accelerating. Perhaps that equates to no net advantage as the court decided, but it also stands to reason that if he has and advantage at full speed, that given an event of sufficient length he would have a net advantage.
