NearPup 2,334 Posted February 10, 2022 #163 Share Posted February 10, 2022 It's now been 12 years since lost a luge race at the Olympic without crashing or making a major mistake, but that was close. Feels like is unlucky to not win any of the events here given the season they've had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susannah 7 Posted February 10, 2022 #164 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Egle crashing during the first run was the reason why she did not get into the podium position. She nearly got there. Same as Julia Taubitz. There is quite a rivalry brewing between Madeleine Egle and Julia Taubitz in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team relay shows that the Austrians are very close to the best Germans in all events. E.g. Ludwig won because he were 0.05 sec quicker in every run than Kindl. Btw Nathalie Geisenberger is now the most successful German Winter Olympic athlete in terms of Gold medals (6-0-1) right before Tobias Wendl and Tobias Arlt (6-0-0), all three surpassing Claudia Pechstein (5-2-2).

So it Is strange for me... Doubles are heavier (duh) so they are slower (less aerodynamic, more air resistance) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heywoodu 13,663 Posted February 10, 2022 #169 Share Posted February 10, 2022 That was quite a fun relay. Would have liked to see Austria win it, but mostly I was hoping for at least a tight race and despite Germany winning, it definitely was tight If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!
