So the Ukrainian athlete went against the IOC's rules and refused to compromise. He was rightfully disqualified.

Great first run from Rasmus!

A miracle Timmings made it to the finish line without crashing.

Yeah, scruffy run from Weston there despite leading. That tap out of turn 2 is so unusual from him. Avoiding that tap and his early run speed was his strength and how he won the test event.

 

His training splits through that section were super quick too, probably the first time he's done that tap. He was visibly angry with himself after that run, should've been a lot further clear.

If  go the whole games without a gold anywhere they will be a huge backlash towards the team for predicting the best games and it could be one of the worse this century.

 ain't gonna withdraw in anyone's support in one event they can win gold. Let's be real for a moment. Kirsty Coventry will be given a pass as the first female IOC president too.

No need to withdraw. Athletes could just block the start together...

Thats crazy too me! Insane IOC is choosing and picking who they are okay with politicizing the event.

And displaying Russian flags have been no isue as well eventhough that's also very clearly not allowed

Although I do sympathise with Heraskevych, he was given multiple warnings unlike Firestone. Speaking of Firestone, I can't believe he did that when Israel is currently committing unspeakable atrocities in Palestine.
