It will be very strange if in some miracle Pita will be better than any Polish skier in that event (it will be national championships, which also are internal qualifications for Polish skiers).

Polish race is most definitely not his final chance.

Manikala Rai is in Campra in Switzerland apparently, time to see how she does against Ms heywoodu  

 

I hope for Manikala that their accomodations have been better than that of the Brazilians by the way: they are on a farm, in the middle of absolutely nowhere, 1 hour by car from the competition venue and with the entire team basically in one big set of bunk beds, where farm life noise wakes them up at 6am and you have to wait with having a warm shower until the fire has warmed up enough water
