Honestly I can't understand what the jury do in the mixed relay. A total bullshit, let's say that.

Nice finish by  Kim Gilli in the final of the 2nd women's 1.000m when she sneakily passed  Desmet and  Santos-Griswold who were fighting for first the entire race up to the last corner.

All 8 individual distances have been finished during this first World Cup weekend and we have 8 different winners: Kristen Santos-Griswold, Hanne Desmet, Xandra Velzeboer, Kim Gilli, Park Ji Won, Hwang Daeheon, Liu Shaoang, and Kim Gun Woo.

 

On top of that, 13 more skaters that won at least one medal. So the 24 medals on the individual distances were split between 21 different skaters from 9 different countries. Very exciting and unpredictable first World Cup weekend!

Japan is the 10th country to win a medal here! Bold race from them, racing at or near the front for most of the race, despite being the weakest team on paper.

Canada won both gendered relays, cannot recall the last time the women won gold!
