What makes the following sentence unclear?

I had hoped to finish the race and win a medal, but I didn’t.

1. it’s a simple sentence and doesn’t need a comma.
2. there are two possible meanings to the sentence.
3. there is no independent clause so the sentence is incomplete.
4. nothing. the sentence contains no errors.
