Here it is, the running order. Thoughts? Not sure if the last place is best for Italy, or anyone. I would switch Italy and Russia and it would be already better. And poor France... and the big uptempo numbers at 3rd, 8th, 12th.... Hungary willl stand out, so will Cyprus. Estonia might get lost between Israel and the UK. But then... it could be worse if drawn :-)

If there was, then it would prove that placement has no influence on the final vote if the public loves the song.
If, on the other hand, no country that sang last at the final has ever won the contest, well... there is a first time for everything :-)
