Speed Skating at the Winter Olympic Games Beijing 2022

There's a two hours gap between them, seems manageable 

Easier as the relay is in first.

Bergsma wins the 10000m in a very solid 12:42, which clinches his spot on the Olympic team (not that it was ever really in doubt, he should also be selected for the mass start and the team pursuit). Roest is second, adding another distance.

 

The day's big winner is Sven Kramer.

lol NOS is making fun of van der Poel for not speaking Dutch.

They weren't exactly making fun of him, he started about hearing his name but not understanding it

Bergsma in the team pursuit?  

 

Most likely it will be Marcel Bosker, probably at the cost of a sprinter..

 

Kramer, Roest, Bosker are teammates, so that would be a major advantage compared to a team with two Jumbo guys and....well, loner Bergsma.

Dione Voskamp pushes Suzanne Schulting out of the 3rd spot in the 500m, for now.

[heywoodu 13,562]

And Michelle de Jong kicks out Voskamp's Olympic hopes.
