Is there any way to fail the test where you take the statue from the Loftwing or will none of the other contestants ever reach it?
I've seen them getting close but can they make it?

No it isn't possible to lose at all. The race will only end if you grab the statue or just stop playing the game.
And it would make sense too right? The game isn't about Groose (nor Cawlin nor Strich), it's about Link. The winner of the race will graduate and get all the goodies that comes with it, there is no second round. And you can't really progress through the game unless you become a knight so you may leave the grounds. If you're not, it's pretty much game over and a game over at this point in the game would be too soon.
I even started a new game just to test this out. As already mentioned, it will not end at all until you get the statue.
There's no way to lose the race even if you wanted to.
Loftwing
. You fall endlessly until you call it so no chance of hitting dirt.

No, it's impossible to fail. The race will not end until you manage to catch the bird.
No. they will never reach the statuette and the race will not end until you grab it.
