BA/VS simultaneous departure

Curious to know if there was a simultaneous arrival in JFK too?
…or did someone win??

I can’t see any mention online.

But the important thing is who burned the least amount of fuel?

BA left Heathrow and went up over the West Coast of Scotland but VS went West over the ROI.
So their planner picked a shorter distance route?
