Giotto have two main problems:

  • He had some pressure problems, i think that's is clear
  • He reach to do some notable results only on the fast ice, like the North American arena.

exactly...:cry: :facepalm:

thanks, but no way it was going to happen...

 

unfortunately, Ghiotto is a choker...he never matches his world cup times and results in the global events...:facepalm:

He was simply not a medal contender, he will never skate 6.09 in a track like Beijing, it's not a question of choker, otherwise there are at least 5 chokers in this race because there were 6 or 7 skaters fighting for bronze. Italians probably aren't in best shape looking also at Giovannini and Malfatti but also in best shape Ghiotto will never skate under 6.13 in this track. He is very good on fast ice like North American, he instead seems more heavy in other tracks.

It was a big pleasure to see that. This two swedish gold so far was amazing.

Still Ghiotto is a very nice skater to watch, unbelievable good technique and besides that a very nice person. I'm still hoping for a better result in the 10K?

This is why I love the Olympics..

 

Woke up this morning and saw on the OBS news feed that Van der Poel had won.  So I went back and watched the last pair fully knowing he was about to win.  And that was still absolutely incredible to watch.  What a comeback.  American commentators couldn't believe it

not on this ice, I fear...

 

our best bets at the moment are women's mass start and 1500m with super-Lollipop...

 

I don't think our men have a chance to shine this time...
