ExpandThe women's races in Cervinia have also been cancelled, even though they were for next week.
FIS's idea for a new Grande opening to the WC is going, going, gone...
Cervinia_Zermatt has been cancelled for both men (this week) and women (next week). No freaking snow anywhere? I am starting to feel that we may be able to see even 2-3 weekends at one spot. Not only talking about Alpine Skiing.
ExpandIs it normal to compete in this almost blind situation for Alpine Skiing? Other skiing events almost all postponed.
I have never seen WC race in such bad conditions .... Or at least cannot recall any ..... I think it wasn't a happy call by the race director to compete today .... The skiers are literally drowning in snow .... I think there is enough space to postpone the race
Goggia absolutely amazing performance in the training .....
Ledecká with BIB 2 tomorrow. Not very good but still doable ..... But too short time to come from snowboard back on skis I am afraid ..... I am expecting a dark horse in Kira Weidle
..... Moreover, don't forget, she has the magical BIB 26 😅😅
Yeah, Zabystřan looks promising. I hope he finishes better than in WCH last year (9th). Let's see what slalom shows ..... Hoping for Zabystřan to make top 5💪💪
In alpine combined today are my favourites Pinturault, Schwarz and Innerhofer .... But at some point with this "strong competition".... Nearly anybody could medal today .... Dont forget what happened on the hill with the mixed event....
Second medal for Hector today?
What the hell Miki😭😭
What the hell Miki 😭😭😭
I am little worried about Petra today ..... I am wondering whether her physical condition dropped a bit compared to WC races?
What a race. Mayer is already a huge legend of the Olympic history.... I am kinda happy for Ryan as his silver is very unexpected .... But very sad for Adrian as I really wished him to earn a medal there he comes in 4th :-(
Anyways, Olympics full of surprises as usual!
Well, when I said DNF, I did not wish Nina a bad crash 😥😥. Hope she is alright...
Maryna still in the medal position 🙂
ExpandCamille Rast may do sth brilliant as well.
Camille Rast quite poor. Now expecting Nina.... 1st or DNF 😅😅
Lara has pulled up an amazing run. This could be a medal performance
Maryna really great job ..... I always cheer for her ..... Unfortunately it isn't Petra's day....
ExpandMy bets for 2nd run now - 1. Hector 2. Brignone 3... well, my heart goes for Maryna ofc but if it can't happen I still think Vlhova after miracle run or Worley
My guess that for the 3rd spot might be Nina O'Brien her first run was really great with bib 21. I think she will go hard in the 2nd run too.
The results on this slope are very unusual ..... I can't help myself but the course looks stable, still in a good condition after 25 ladies but yet I see no matter how well you ski with higher number, it somehow does not let you in top positions ..... Of course O'Brien was an exception ..... Anyways,pity for Michaela and I truly hope with fire rocket in Petra's ass in the second run 😅😅
Damn it, training was live? I was trying to find it but Eurosport player wasn't broadcasting it...... Or I just misslooked??😑😑
ExpandIt seems that every country refuses quota and FIS started to offer automatically to
:-D
I am happy for every athlete. But it is a little bit weird that our athletes do not compete for whole year in any WC (both men and women) and now they would start in OG.
It is not only about WC. You most follow also EC, FIS races, COC ..... All athletes going to OG in "FIS sports" made there descent results. Otherwise they could not collect enough FIS points and qualify 😀
Last minute reallocation for in women's alpine skiing. After
refused,
accepted and nominated Gabriela Capová, slalom specialist who is already in the Beijing 2022 system and 115th member of Czech Olympic Team in Beijing.
Expand
accepted quota: Tereza Nová (downhill, SG, combination)
Yeah, read it just yesterday 🙂 .. on FIS page was the accepted quota for some time ..... Was waiting for the name who is actually gonna fly. Still surprised Gabriela Capová is not going ......
Well, according to FIS page after all accepted the additional quota . So after Anezka Indrackova and Radek Rydl in ski jumping, we recieved another reallocation. So I suppose the next quota may go to Gabriela Capová or Celine Sommerová or Tereza Nová. Waiting for confirmation as COC and Czech media are silent .... Will see tomorrow ...
