Huh, it seems the short track qualifying heats have all been cancelled. They were scheduled for today until a few days ago, apparently now they're not on the schedule anymore. Too bad, now we start a day later

So, downhill MTB is my new entry in my "ffs, why this is not a Olympic discipline since 20 years ago" list

Agreed, the IOC or sport federations don't need to create events, there are a bunch that are both interesting and competitive.

 Pauline Ferrand-Prevot put on quite a one-man show in the women's Cross Country race...

 

all the other girls were miles behind her...

 

meanwhile among the men,  Nino Schurter did again! 10th elite world title for him after a very entertaining race and a fierce battle against  Valero Serrano and, partially,  Luca Braidot...

 

Olympic Champion Tom Pidcock did ride a crazy race between moments of brilliance, moments of crisis, technical mistakes (going twice against the same tree in the wood, once even falling from his bike ) and even a tech problem that maybe cost him the bronze medal...in the end, he was 4th a good minute behind the 3rd ranked (Braidot)...

Thanks for the recap!

 

There's no clear superstar dominating the U23 women this time like Loanna Lecomte and Mona Mitterwallner did in the past two years. I've been following the junior world cups a bit in hopes  Puck Pieterse would win some, but they're exchanging blows evenly between  Berquier,  Pedersen and  Pieterse
