Polish ES commentator Marcin Szafranski says the course looks exciting and yeah, all the ice means it kinda holds up pretty well too. Obviously this is still a new course for everyone so we can't call it "short & boring" and it has caught out some names alright.

Szafranski is in olympic form today as well :-) I really enjoy his commentary today.

He's my favorite ES commentator and yeah, I'm old enough to have watched him compete in Albertville 1992

But they should lock Witold Domański in the cellar for the olympics. This guy is awful. If he is on men's downhill, I'll certainly switch to Nick Fellows & Finlay Mickel.

My friend likes to say: I'm not working hard all week to get me bad drinks on the weekend.

I would say: I'm not woking hard all year to get me bad commentary in the olympic alpine skiing :-) Domański, please stay home.

@hckošice Truppe won't make a decent 2nd run, I guess. And Petra is 0,86 behind Hrovat. Bronze is within reach today.

My 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.

Not sure if Vlhova can medal here.  Her 1st run was really tentative.

Camille Rast may do sth brilliant as well.
