Further back Raiza Goulão is destroying Jaqueline Mourão :evil:

 

Revenge after the Brazilian championships where Mourão won because of a very, very early mechanical problem for Goulão which literally made her walk almost an entire lap...

 

  Reveal hidden contents

Which in a bit of a disrespectful move was entirely ignored by the winner, who mostly focussed on how great she was.

 

 

They'll both be classified with -1LAP; so Mourao can say it's a tie. ;)

Grass is green, water is wet, Red Bull commentators are obsessed with vd Poel. :dunno:

Because up front there's not much to mention (why would you say Kerschbaumer and Schurter are together every minute?) and Van der Poel is riding from 20th to 15th to 10th to 5th and then jumped away from the chase group to 3rd, he's the one where something is actually happening :p

Nah, they were already drooling over him when he was 20th. "Oh, he is Dutch MTB champion. Oh, he is Dutch cyclo-cross champion, OH OH! And road champion."

Ah yeah, holding all three main cycling titles is quite something indeed.

    • I’ll start first;   Obviously,  @brunamoura in cross country skiing if she qualifies  (no pressure)    Curling:  Team Hasselborg and Team Edin,  Kaldvee/Lill, and to a lesser extent  Team Fujisawa and  Team Schwaller Ice Hockey:  Sweden men’s team,  Arturs Silovs/Teddy Blueger, whichever Canucks are on  United States’ men’s team, and  Finland’s men’s team if Lankinen can keep up his good play (Even though he’s probably going to get traded from the Canucks after this season, he prefers being on a team where he can get more starts than more money. Still I have a soft spot for him) Alpine Skiing:  Marco Odermatt,  Aleksandr Aamodt Kilde Freestyle Skiing:  Jakara Anthony,  Birk Ruud,  Sina Sigenthaler,  Andri Ragettli Snowboarding:  Leon Ulbricht,  Marcus Kleveland,  Anna Gasser Speed Skating:  Jutta Leerdam,  Jordan Stolz Luge:  Thomas Steu/Wolfgang Kindl,  Tobias Wendl/Tobias Arlt   From a Canadian perspective, I’m rooting for our men’s hockey team above all. Then, our curling teams, especially Team Homan if she wins Olympic Trials. Then Max Parrot, Mikael Kingsbury, Eliot Grondin, William Dandjinou, our women’s hockey team, and our ski cross squad. But really I’ll be rooting for all of our athletes. 
    • Decided to start a thread on this early, and get some discussion early    When I mean athletes, I mean athletes from other countries mainly… but ones that represent your country work too

    • Interesting day in Muaythai...    were the only NOCs to send female athletes in the sport. However, they split the medals evenly, with both NOCs winning two golds. 
    • Botafogo won Copa Libertadores despite having a player send off after 30 seconds of the final

    • I disagree, the Christiansen hit on Kuzmenko was as clean as can be, why would you try to start a fight after that? Honestly, I find it a little pathetic and soft from Pospisil, but maybe that’s just me…
