Olympic 100m champion Lamont Marcell Jacobs DSQ for false start:p. It happens to the best of them. 

according to the Italian press, it wasn't a false start at all...and even the audience present at the hall did blow a lot of whistles against the judges...:mumble:

 

by the way, in the same meet in Belgrade, Nick Ponzio won the men's Shot Put with the new Italian record of 21.61m and Zeynab Dosso won the women's 60m in 7.21 secs...

 

so, some good results for Italy, too...:p

 

but the star of the night was of course :SWE Armand "Mondo" Duplantis, who won the men's Pole Vault with the new Indoor World Record of 6.19m...:yikes: :bowdown:

17 years old Nick Griggs just ran a 3:56 mile indoors :yikes:

 

It's a Euro U20 record. He also won European U20 gold last year over 3000m at the age of 16. Crazy to think we could finally have another potential track star from Ireland after so many years.

    • I will try to make a list of NOCs where we have some active users here but i'm sorry because i surely forgot someone so please add them to the list.   Idea for this thread is who was the best French/Spanish/Italian/Dutch etc. athlete in 2024 in your opinion? You can nominate one athlete for each NOC.  
    • I think she’ll get top 6, but no podium. With the amount of medal contenders that we have, there’s gonna be some disappointments (In Beijing we had Kingsbury in moguls even with the silver, Dubreuil in the 500m, men’s ski cross, curling, and our men’s hockey team as the main ones)
    • Let me be clear:  I don't want to promote this product, this drink. That's not the case.   I'm interested in who's competing in Team RB because i think this company gives a lot of money to the athletes and i wonder if they can benefit from it... how many of them will get medals?
    • No medal for Loutitt???   You don't hope for it???
    • That was the same for me. And it's obviously too early, just for fun. Now it's more like predictions for 2024/2025 winter sports World Championships than 2026 olympics actually...   And still - it was done before 24/25 world cup events in some sports started (e.g. nordic combined, downhill and super-G in alpine, skicross etc...)   so it will have to be updated for sure...
    • Day 1   A lot of these predictions are what I’m hoping for, honestly    Speed Skating - Women’s 3000m Gold-  Ragne Wiklund Silver-  Ivanie Blondin Bronze-  Joy Beune   Snowboard - Men’s Big Air Gold-  Taiga Hasegawa Silver-  Marcus Kleveland Bronze-  Red Gerard   Alpine Skiing - Men’s Downhill Gold-  Marco Odermatt Silver-  Aleksandr Aamodt Kilde Bronze-  Andreas Sander   Ski Jumping - Women’s Normal Hill Individual Gold-  Eva Pinkelnig Silver-  Sara Takanashi Bronze-  Nika Prevc   Cross Country Skiing - Women’s 10km and 10km Skiathlon (Confused on the format and favourites… might not be the best of guesses) @heywoodu does this look fine?  Gold-  Jessie Diggins Silver-  Frida Karlsson Bronze-  Krista Parmakoski    1-2-0  1-1-0  1-0-1  1-0-0  1-0-0  0-1-0  0-1-0  0-0-1  0-0-1  0-0-1  0-0-1
    • M downhill on the first day A blue ribbon event The BEST event for me it's good that it's on day 1 - a nice thing to begin with   but...on the other hand... it's all downhill from there
