Nice catch 007 :)
Nicolas, Try this on R5 and R6
conf ter
router eigrp 1
redistribute ospf 1 metric 1000 500 255 1 1500
do clear ip eigrp neigh
on R7
conf ter
router eigrp 1
variance 1
do clear ip eigrp neigh
do show ip eigrp topology
And you will see what Sean is talking about
thanks,

That FD is killing R5's chances. The delay is simply too high on R5's link.
Try these 2 links:

Variance is only one of two conditions to be met when considering best
routes:
"A route is feasible if the next router in the path is closer to the
destination than the current router *AND* if the metric for the entire path
is within the variance."
