Nice to read your predictions. For me Antoinette de Jong :NED and Natalia Voronina :RUS are the clear favourites at the women's side, Nils van der Poel :SWE  will win the men's race tomorrow, although I hope for Patrick Roest :NED that he can finally become world champion on a single distance.

  20. :NZL 6:23,94 - Peter Michael

Full top 10 on the women's side correct, but in a completely wrong order. Sad for Wiklund she did not medal here, I was rooting for her.

 

The men's 5.000m prediction was quite incorrect. Disappointed by the Pedersen (2019 World Champion) and Kramer (3x Olympic Champion + 8 times World Champion) of course, but very excited to see Van der Poel win the title here. Very convincing race here and I can't wait for the 10.000 metres. I'll also keep a close eye on Aldoshkin in the future, he was my biggest surpirse of the day.

Predictions for tomorrow:

 

Team Pursuit Ladies:

 

  1. :NED 
  2. :RUS 
  3. :CAN 
  4. :NOR 
  5. :POL 
  6. :BLR 
  7. :GER 
  8. :SUI 

The top 3 teams are the teams with three solid skaters, whereas (apart from Switzerland) each team has two solid skaters, but missing a third one to compete for the podium. I think Canada and Norway benefited the most from the easier conditions during the World Cups.

 

Team Pursuit Men:

 

  1. :NED
  2. :NOR
  3. :RUS
  4. :CAN
  5. :ITA
  6. :KAZ
  7. :POL
  8. :NZL

This is purely based on the individual qualities of the skaters. Norway won the World Cup, but Pedersen and Kongshaug were disappointing today on the 5.000m. Canada will start with Howe, who is more of a 1.000m and 1.500m specialist, who will struggle more with these tougher circumstances. Russia will benefit most from these circumstances. The Netherlands will most likely start with Bosker, Roest and Huizinga, who are team mates, so I expect them to work together better than the teams that started during the world cups.

  22. :BEL 39,50 - Sandrine Tas

Well, at the women's side Femke Kok :NED is the favourite, but like Patrick Roest today she has only something to lose. In addition, she has a bad draw, finishing in the outside lane. I predict Angelina Golikova :RUS  for the win. The men's competition will be close, but will find Pawel Kuliznhikov :RUS on top of the ranking. Laurent Dubreuil :CAN also has a good chance.

 

Team pursuit women: :CAN for sure.

Team pursuit men: :NOR .

    • 2 things...   first, for what concerns the cooperation between inline skating and speedskating federations...sorry to disppoint some of you, but there's a great cooperation between them   the point is that many "summer" skaters just don't want to try the ice because they have too much to give up for that   you name places like Collalbo or Baselga, but for the "summer skating" guys from centeral and southern regions it's not an option, it's not that they make it for a living with those disciplines, they have to focus on their studies and build a post-competitive sport career and they just can't place themselves into a hole in the mountains when they maybe are studying in some prestigious universities in the big cities   as I already posted more than once, the idea of covering one of those tracks in the mountains was something idiotic, a political concession impossible to be sustained   the one and only chance to build a true legacy and an efficient, attractive national training center was to build a permanent indoor oval in Milan, beside the Forum   that would have given all the "summer skaters" a true opportunity to try the ice experience and at the same time find the most useful, attractive, prestigious places to continue their studies and try and manage them together with their sports career   any other place wouldn't stand a chance   second...don't give Salvini any credit he doesn't deserve...actually, I think he doesn't even know that in Cortina there's a sliding sports track    it's not thanks to him that the Cortina track's building finally went underway 
    • c'mon, guys! relax! sciallatevi un po'!    you're making me sick...it's just the season start and this is a sport where only the world championship (and Olympic, in the specific years) medals count   don't get mad for a couple of races held thousend miles away from home after the team had already passed their first climax (the internal selection)...there are still 2 full seasons before the Olympics
    • Super Round Results   21/11    b.   2-0  b.   9-1   22/11    b.   8-2  b.   9-6   nothing is decided yet, all teams still have a thoretical chance to make the Gold Medal match   Tomorrow, the last day of the Super Round sees  facing the  at Noon local time (4 a.m. CET) and  facing  at 7 p.m. local time (11 a.m. CET)   the medal games are scheduled for Sunday, BMM at Noon local, GMM at 7 p.m. local
    • very poor performance by the US bullpen both Yesterday and Today    not very impressed by this US team for the entire tournament, also in the Mexican first group (Panama deserved to qualify more than them, but they were lucky with the draw and won the decisive direct matchup)   Venezuela confirmed themselves as a very strong team at bat, but with too many troubles on the mound   Today against Japan they had to make a pitching change already in the 1st inning and basically they had to go for a bullpen game, but it didn't come out like the Dodgers'   Japan always on top of their game, even when the pitching staff doesn't perform at best...frankly, they look more and more unbeatable when no MLB superstar is involved (like in this case), but also when it comes down to the top of the pops it's not that they look worse (see 2023 WBC)  there's a serious risk that their domination becomes even too easy, the gap between them and the rest of the world is widening year after year   Taiwan might look like a surprise, but after the 2023 fail, I was sure they were going to rebound and establish themselves among the top teams in the WBSC tournaments, as they are very good in each and every aspect of the game (batting, pitching...maybe a bit less on defense, but you can't have it all)
