Default Dumping ballast in a gaggle, bad etiquette or poor sportsmanship?

Are you sure it was a water they dumped???

I am sure this story is no a wife's tale during the world comps our very
much unliked primeminister many others were to be flown over by a glider
dumping water balast.

The balast was filled by pilots reliving themselves and then the rest water.

It is also a worry when you comment about them dumping water and they say
that they do not have ballast tanks.

Sorry about the previous blank post.
