Nope. you're wrong. It's a protest against the closing a hospital, I guess. (It's say "forbidden to be born")

Oh :d I read 'Forbidden to be born' as some abortion thing, that made more sense than a hospital :p 

 

Oh well, it's annoying live timing isn't working, I want to know who's in the lead group apart from the 3-4 names I've seen so far..

Ilya Chernousov wins a fantastic sprint against Berdal :cheer:

 

4th for Gjerdalen who had to let go in the final meters, so no 4th consecutive win for him

Chernousov should have changed his citizenship to Swiss, I don't get he didn't do it yet...

Bring back the 1991 borders

probably he couldn't match the very strict rules they have (among other requirements, you have to sustain an examination about Swiss history and geography to get the Swiss citizenship)...

not yet, at least (you can try more than once, of course)...

Bottom line is that he could have raced in Bogota too.. 

 

It's just a fact of life that some competitions are easier to qualify than others, not just in XC skiing.

Absolutely. Plus maybe a case of not having the right friends.

    • Yeah. It was pretty bad that they cancel the contract with the original creative director after 7 months of work. I feel like politics, in this particular context of the changing of prime minister and the cabinet, may had caused changes in organizational decisions regarding the Sea Games including the direction of the opening ceremony. 
    • That's what I figured.  Wouldn't be a proper lead up to an Olympics without some media-fueled fearmongering.
