And, probably most important news, Arianna Fontana back to compete for the Italian NOC, but only in individual events. There isn't an agreement for the relay.

[Gianlu33 4,585]

New update on the Fontana saga: the mixed relay has been officially ruled out as Cassinelli will be there. It's still unclear whether she'll be part of the women's relay.

Yeah, not the best start at all. Maybe nerves?

 

Due to work obligations, I wasn't able to watch the 1.500m and 500m, but his 1.000m preliminary looked alright to me. Let's see how he will do in the heats that will start in a few minutes.

[intoronto 5,646]

Defending silver medalists are out in the men's 5000 relay.
