Of course, but then at least it'd be out of their hands for a couple of years   

 

It's like swimming, no boundaries for WRs.

So Voinova out in QF, the other Russian was already out in the morning.

 

How on Earth can they be so good in team sprint? I guess other teams should take exchange trainings more seriously.

Fantastic tactic for the Ukrainian, but Vogel is Vogel

Because team sprints and relays (especially in short distances) are not a simple matter of athlete 1 + athlete 2 = total result

Holy everything, what an attack by Teklinski  in the final laps of the scratch 

[Gianlu33 4,528]

Teklinski   What amazing last laps

[heywoodu 14,942]

I almost hought either Suter or Liss was going to bring him back, especially Liss had a crazy fast last lap

It's completely the same attack as last year. Looks like that's the thing for scratch races, attack with 5-6 laps to go.

That's what you get in races where there is no country with 2 athletes, because nobody is going to really stage a counter-attack since that'll destroy their own chances
