De_Gambassi 896 Posted October 4, 2017 #1 Share Posted October 4, 2017 The Pyeongchang french team presentation is underway. Between 114 and 115 athletes are expected (106 in Vancouver, 116 in Sochi). The skiing federation is looking at 20 medals. For the ice sport federation, not to look complety stupid would be a good achievment. Outfits (Lacoste): Spoiler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Define 'not to look completely stupid'. If that means, achieve at least one top-8 result or something, that should be rather easy. If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Not to "forget" to register one of your very few athletes to one of the discipline would be a good start. http://www.leparisien.fr/JO-hiver/sotchi-2014-en-direct/sotchi-2014-ewen-fernandez-patineur-oublie-par-sa-federation-17-02-2014-3598975.php (try your luck with google translate).

I remember something about this, the 10km where some people suddenly refused their right to start a few days before the event to focus on the team pursuit (like they couldn't have said that weeks earlier).

Apparatently, the federation decided not to registerer him a few weeks prior to Sochi without noticing Fernandez. When the federation was publicly called out at Sochi, they answer that they made the call with his coach, Bart Veldkamp, which was not the case. Overall it's a inept federation run by a corupt little, little man, David Gailhaguet, which should have nothing to do with sport. A federation that is letting to die everything not called figure skating. Bottom line: burn with fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heywoodu 13,545 Posted October 4, 2017 #6 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Oh well, getting a medal on the ice (not figure skating) is no unrealistic goal for France in Pyeongchang, so let's see how that goes.
