Damn! Just 0.06 away from -style dominance!  Grotheer takes the overall on consistency - Matt Weston had one shaky day early on.

Good result . Unlike the guys, our ladies have had trouble adapting to the new sleds, but now they’re getting the idea.

Big thanks from Britain to Latvia and Austria. The coaching of Martin Dukurs  and Matthias Guggenberger has worked brilliantly this winter.

So tonight's race was streaming fine on YouTube until the two British sliders right at the end where the stream cut out a message came up "This stream has been suspended for policy violations" then came back on after the race was over.

Was this a UK thing or did it happen everywhere?

For all us obsessive-compulsives out there - the IBSF has just uploaded the missing races to YT!    No commentary, though.
