Yeah, Italy was incredibly unlucky too. Zorzi and Bichocchi went clear. Chimirri needed 0/4 or even 8 penalties to ensure qualification, but he ended up getting 12 (all 3 fences down in the last part of the course). Dropping them from potential 1st place to 10th.

 

Italy was however missing De Luca and Marziani here.

De Luca made a big mistake and he fail to schedule the season, his horse aren't in shape actually  You have any livestream for follow the final?

Interesting commentating job for Jess Kurten and Phil Ghazala though. They are talking non-stop for the last 57 minutes, and yet nothing is happening.

FEI tv is the only one I know.

 

Looks like they decided to set a new course, in the parts of the arena covered by reflectors. I wonder if it will start before midnight.

Guess what? Reflector started working.  Now they are in a rush to set the old course back.

After one hour and 45 minutes we are on.

[dcro 10,210]

Oh Canada...  The only team that finished on 0 on day 1. But looks like they'll finish last today.

Victory for the Netherlands

 

might be overreaction, but they haven't won anything since 2015.
