Please, don't get angry but I have to point out a mistake that I see you are making often: the correct spelling is "with".

 

Yes, I couldn't live without telling you that, sorry

Dutch coaches are doing some tampering with sprint quarterfinals.

[OlympicsFan 860]

France is super strong, GB weak as always and the team pursuit times are suspiciously fast. The german sprint coach has obviously gone mad, there is no other explanation for why he didnt use Grabosch in the final. With Grabosch instead of Welte, Germany should dominate team spring again very soon. Hard to see Germany not winning the team sprint gold in 2020 on the womens side, the men on the other hand are still shit, something finally has to happen. A decade ago Germany dominated this event, now they are an outsider at best for medals at the global stage, of course Bötticher retiring didnt help either, without all his injuries he could have become an absolute legend.
