The Result
Countries receiving most 12 points / United States, 5
Countries giving 12 points to the winner / Cuba, Spain, Colombia and Armenia
Countries receiving points from most juries / Andorra, 24
Highest placing country not scoring a top mark / France in 16th with 10 points from Sweden and Puerto Rico as highest marks
Lowest placing country scoring a top mark / South Korea in 25th getting 12 points from Sweden
This rather quickly turned out to be a two-horse-race, with Andorra and United States taking turns in leading the pack. Ultimately, the former pulled away and secured their 4th gold medal with a healthy margin ahead of United States, who collected their 7th silver medal. The African continent won another medal as Uganda claimed the bronze medal in only their third final ever. The top 5 was rounded out by San Marino and New Zealand who along with the medallists secured a place in next edition's final.
Andorra debuted in GM11 and has been a pretty consistent participant since, only taking one major break from GM54 to 63. They achieved their first top 10 result in GM17 and took their first medal, a silver, in GM64 before finally claiming gold in GM73 with La Oreja de Van Gogh. A few other medals followed before Pastora Soler was crowned as champion in GM102, and that last name must be lucky, because a male Soler: Álvaro became the third artist to win the trophy for Andorra in GM124. And now Lorena Gómez triumphs and brings back GM to Andorra for a fourth time. Ricky has been Head of the Andorran Delegation since GM53 and is responsible for all nine Andorran medals! In total the tiny country has participated 111 times, qualifying for 73 finals and reaching the top 10 on 29 of those occasions. Well done Andorra, Lorena and Ricky!
