You are not that old though?

 

Usually the old people cheer for the old athletes.

 

I generally cheer for oldies who are in it forever but still haven't actually won (or gotten a podium, although that's not the case for Clarey). Especially considering how hard Clarey was hit by Poisson's death - he said the entire season, including the Olympics, felt like he (Clarey) was just a ghost, like he didn't actually compete in all those races - I'd just love to see him take that win.

Nina Ortlieb chokes it hard. 0,38 ahead with 20 seconds left and goes out

 

She'll be furious once she sees the splits...

Ortlieb dumping her first ever podium - and possibly even win - right into the trash can.

The weather is very much helping in keeping this exciting  

[Monzanator 4,504]

Elena Curtoni 4th. The sun has come out in the middle part for sure...

[Monzanator 4,504]

And Fleury goes out with a 0,50 lead - 1/3 into the course though.

TV went away right before Vlhova came on course...not sure that's the brightest idea ever

[phelps 7,678]

Vlhova...

[heywoodu 15,146]

6th place for Vlhova and that's after a pretty big mistake at the bottom

[Monzanator 4,504]

Bassino Top 5 in DH.

 

Vlhova led all the way through but lost a full second in the last 15 seconds and down in 6th.

 

4 of Top 6 are technical speciallists. The death of women's speed events is near...
