Disappointing for sure with Ahn as well, but if their samples were tempered with in Sochi as reported, IOC had no choice

Where was it reported? Who reported? Their Sochi samples are clean, and Kulizhnikov was not in Sochi at all. Yuskov is banned from the Olympics, because 10 years ago he was caught on marijuana. They are clean and can compete in all competitions, except this Olympics

Who is favorite in men's mass start?

Everyone. 

 

Spoiler

Lee is the big favourite, no doubt. Giovannini is strong, Contin is the most experienced of them all in these kind of races, Wenger is fast, Swings has a strong sprint, Mantia seems to be in fantastic shape and mostly focused on this, Michael is good and Pedersen is in great shape.

Schouten and vdWeijden were very mysterious about their tactics. "There are so many Dutch coaches everywhere, it's better to stay quiet against the Dutch media as well" :p 

 

Bart Schouten - Canada

Bob de Jong - South Korea

Johan de Wit - Japan

 

Probably forgetting someone :d

German commentators said that even if you win all sprints, you cant get more points than the eventual 3rd place finisher, so what exactly is the point of those sprints? Won't the first 3 at the finish always be the top 3?

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

Moller misses out by 0.01 on Zueva because she didn't even attempt to get ahead of her in the photo finish, are you kidding me? :facepalm:

 

This is so boring.
