Yeah much better from Ninis and expected much worse from Skupek

 

I just hope Jozef will make it to the 4th Heat this time in his last Olympics, will be hard to be in top 20 though. For Skupek a Top 30 would be nice.

and another disastrous run from Ninis... oh man

Michael Lejsek today's runs both under 1 minute and top 10 in his group. This track probably fits him as he barely was able to make the main race during WC.

Some thoughts from the first few televised training runs I’ve seen. Track is quite unique. The open curve profiles are wild. No look at the spiral today (covered from sun), so don’t know what to make of it. That roller at the bottom is quite something though.

 

Parts of the track that seem to be more problematic/points of interest:

- Exit Turn 2

- Turn before the entrance to the spiral (Turn 8?)

- Roller right before the finish

 

Nikolajev  with a bit of scary run as well. Issues from the start.

Much better runs from Ninis today. Hopefully he will be able to repeat them also in the race

What are these camera angles? The venue is also ugly, for a lack of a better word.

OBS commentator: "it's not over"
Time clock showing +0.7: "ya, it's pretty over"

[Adriano 590]

So many mistakes in  the first slide (Loch, AUT/ UKR)

Watching  does not fill me with confidence…
