because their opponents inherited the advantage by beating the higher seed...

 

so, actually it's not always the lower bib, but the skier filling the space of the supposed lower bib at the start of the knockout stage (if the no.16 beats the no., then it's like he gets the no.1 for the rest of the event, for instance)...

This is straight up garbage! I suppose FIS doesn't care about anything though. More team event & parallel shit for years to come!

Ajmo Vatreni !

oh, guys! I DIDN'T make the rule...it's FIS... 

 

I'm only trying to report what our broadcaster is reporting about this farce...

This would actually work without the +0.5 part.

It's just utterly ridiculous. It's like having an individual biathlon race with max 2 minutes added after 2/4 shoots.

Liensberger wins by over 1 second but of course it doesn't matter

 

I seem to recall the first season when they introduced the parallel shit they still counted the real gaps after 1st run? The mandatory 0,5 gap only came in later for whatever reason.

Big error for Zubcic and Faivre wins on blue course.

yeah, and they changed the penalty time more than once...

 

I'm asking myself how it can be a serious event if they change rules and formats every year and if they choose slopes that can't even guarantee a fair competition for all the starters?

Yes, that was not good from Zubcic ...

[dcro 10,210]

I honestly hope the bad karma part is officially behind Zubčić now!

Kind of deserved for Faivre, he didn't looked as bad on the blue course as some others ...
