Yep, it's already a big deal when Globo or something pays some attention to them (like Bruna Moura and Victor Santos who had a live Skype interview with SporTV last winter from Austria). I guess nearly all attention in the coming months will be on Jaque Mourão once again (and hopefully on Isabel Clark as well).

heywoodu 13,504 Posted November 7, 2017 #75 Share Posted November 7, 2017 For those interested, Bruna (Moura, the number one Brazilian biathlete at the moment) will have a live interview on SporTV tomorrow at/around 12.30 Brasilia time 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!

vinipereira 3,037 Posted February 14, 2018 #77 Share Posted February 14, 2018 So after 4 days Globo is finally starting their live coverage of the Games (they had to wait for the end of Carnaval). It's their biggest ever for a Winter Games. They will show about 4-5 hours everyday - from midnight through dawn Still good considering it's a open channel.

heywoodu 13,504 Posted February 14, 2018 #78 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Interesting to see Mika Picin is doing the commentary (or co-commentary? or the role as expert?) for biathlon and XC on SporTV It might be a paid channel so you'd sort of expect it, but I still like seeing how much they are showing of the Winter Olympics....pretty much all (Korean) day and even with a studio (where there's talk about more sports than on Dutch TV), that's nice 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!
