What the hell was the 1 point deduction for?

Mystery one point deductions in ice dance are usually due to a lift being too long.

Yeah, even Polish commentators said the deduction was for a lift held too long.

Some illegal lifting I think.

Lift too long. Illegal lifting would be a massive deduction.

probably for waking up one of the referees.

This program was too safe. But it was clean and they are Russians, so silver it is.

 

P/C will win by a mile.

P/C are lucky their closest competitors don't have a crowd pleasing free dance (and that there is no real crowd) this time.

 

I'm still quite convinced that the massive crowd reaction really helped V/M win in 2018, and a big part of that is that the program was just much more crowd pleasing.

I'm glad P/C are going to win this, they deserve it, but I sort of hope they retire because their programs are so boring xD
