Chequered Flag Crossword 2017

Thinking there is an error in the Irish Times CF Crossword...40ac and 91dn is Isa Nacewa. The 's'in Isa sits in 35 down. The answer to 35 down is Walsh I think but the s is in the wrong place. Anyone else get this?

I have costa as answer to 5 down and for 20 across I have bolt but don't fit together.

What's the point of that? Go look up the clues...if you can't find one or two you can ask for help but I don't see the point of giving all of the answers away...you miss out on the pleasure of actually doing the crossword...
