thanks God ,we won't have these boring sprints in finals 

 

There will be sprints, just not important for the medals (and that will make it even more stupid than now).

Blondin is out.

 

Basically the only mass starter with any consistency in her results.

Wow, that was impressive riding for Van der Weijden 

 

Simply skating Blondin 'out of her wheel' as they'd say in cycling

Hope she gets her redemption after 5000m tragedy.

Oh well, I'm having a good time by just thinking and talking about how hilariously ridiculous this whole format is, so it brings something

I very much hope so too. Don't see it happen though: she had this fall and had to spent a ton of energy (she already sort of signalled she's dead), and Schouten is the main woman to go for the gold, even more so after this race I guess..
