Watching on Insider live,... Iditarod site has Waerner's finishing time 9days 10 hours etc.. But the woman announcing the finishing times for subsequent musher has 9 days 9 hours etc,... why are the announced times at the finish line shorter than the official final times I see in the standings?

Daylight savings? No idea, just throwing out a guess?

Is it for all mushers or only some? I mean, if there are humans being looking at a watch I would expect some errors.

I recall being bewildered one time the lady said finishing time. I think I settled on her just saying 9 instead of 19. I think 19 hours was more or less correct for the musher she was checking in.
