The Result
Countries receiving most 12 points / San Marino, 5
Countries giving 12 points to the winner / Finland, Japan, Greece, Brazil and Kosovo
Countries receiving points from most juries / Russia and United States, 15
Highest placing country not scoring a top mark / Russia in 5th place with 8 points from Austria as highest mark
Lowest placing country scoring a top mark / Finland in 22nd place getting 12 points from United States
Throughout the voting it looked like a battle between Japan, United States and Sweden, but towards the end San Marino came from almost out of nowhere getting the top mark from the last 3 juries and thus claiming victory. What a finish! Japan finished as runner-up and took home the silver, while the bronze went to United States. Sweden and Russia rounded out the top 5.
San Marino made its debut in GM10 with a solid 4th place finish. However, after only 5 participations they quit the contest and didn't return until GM31. Initially, their comeback wasn't very successful, but after all it took only another 5 participations, before the tiny country can now call themselves Global Music Champions with only their 10th participation! Well done San Marino, Appassionante and Dimitri!
