Yes definitely a problem getting that 2nd Raptor fired up and operating at full thrust on the lower part of the descent ( less than a kilometer from ground level )
Out of the two it looked like SN9's Raptor failed later than SN8's ( ie closer to impact )
I'm sure SN10 will fly sooner than later once they sort out the descent thrust issue on the Raptors
Also FAA approval is becoming an obstacle for Space X , they need to sit down and sort it out so ongoing testing can continue in a timely manner ( staggering pace )
