The Ski Jumping venue is the first one I've seen so far that uses a colour other than blue for the look of the games.

I don't even know who is dumber. Athletes who risked their Olympics for some random WC, or FIS for organizing WC events 5 days before the Olympics and two years into pandemic.

Useless piece of trivia: this will be the Olympics since Turin 2006 where ski jumping doesn't start before the opening ceremonies.

Lanisek was pre-qualified in the Team

If Lanišek doesn't improve (finish inside top 10) on the normal hill, I think Cene might be picked for the mixed team competition. As for the girls I think Urša might already be picked (due to world cup standings and potential retirement after next season) and it's between Nika and Ema for the second place.
