[請益] 2句英文該如何解釋 ?

[silvereye35 (eye)]

不好意思又來版上請各位大大幫忙解釋下述三題英文,謝謝 ~

1. In his first professional race, in 1992 Classico San Sebastian,
   he ended up finishing dead last, 27 minutes behind the winner.
   請問該怎麼解釋 finishing dead last ?

2. In 1995, he even won the Classico San Sebastian, the race
   he had finished last in, in 1992.
   這句的意思是指他1995贏了比賽, 但在1992年是最後一名嗎 ?


   若第一句與第二句一起看,是指:1992那場賽事輸的很慘,是最後一名
                               且整整落後冠軍27分鐘的意思嗎?


3. After one particularly bad day during one of his races,
   he pulled over and decided he was done with racing.
   However, after spending time with his really good
   cycling friends, he returned to racing, and again
   he was off again in pursuit of cycling victories !
   想請問第二行 pull over 應怎麼翻較順? (我知道原意是:靠邊停車)
   另外, 最後一行 he was off again.
   請問這裡off 指的應該也是 pull over 的意思吧 ?
