Colombia's hypothetical chance in the future is obviously speed skating, since they are extremely good in Roller/Inline Speed Skeeting. They should focus all their resources in that.

 

They have a rather realistic chance there to at least significantly reduce the gap to the extended top of the world within the next 1-2 Olympic cycles, at the very least with 1 or 2 athletes. Pedro Causil's performances are hopeful, it'd be nice if more athletes of that kind of level follow. Very nice program there by coach Desly Hill :)

Although to be fair, Brazil's chances are in absolutely no way even remotely comparable to Belgium's chances :d 

 

Indeed, did you ever even see someone like Clark get a podium because everyone basically fell? :p Falls like that simply don't happen.

 

Chile has a bigger chance in ski cross, but that's not happening ever.

Of course I know that's possible, but the chance is so tiny. Just the possibility of having extreme luck several times in a row means Brazil has a theoretical medal chance, whereas Belgium actually has a chance to get a medal on merit.

I almost can't count the number of medal chances Germany will have tomorrow. If everything goes well, Germany might more medals tomorrow than most nations have won during the whole games so far.

- 2 x biathlon

- figure skating

- luge team relay

- speed skating men's 10 000 m

- men's snowboard cross

- women's giant slalom

- men's downhill

 

 I hope for one medal in women's individual, a medal in figure skating, gold in luge, a medal in men's snowboard cross and a medal in women's giant slalom.

I don't see Beckert winning a medal, he seems to be completely out of shape. In men's biathlon everything is possible, but one medal should be guaranteed for Fourcade and hopefully Boe will finally show his true self and win the gold. Two medals is already much more than expected, so i won't ask for more. In men's downhill i don't think starting first will help Dreßen, but top 6 would be absolutely amazing for him. If 4 out of Svindal, Jansrud, Kriechmayer, Mayer, Bennett mess up he might have a tiny chance for a medal. Feuz would have to crash or miss a gate for Dreßen to have any chance to beat him. I don't know about the odds for Feuz, but for me this is the 2nd safest gold medal bet here, only behind Shiffrin in women's slalom.

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

    • Apparently this season will be last one in Kamil Stoch career if his results wont be enough good for his standards.
    • Such a nice one for Colturi ! That was fun. It almost looked like a script with the cameras focusing on Colturi a couple of times before her first run and showcasing the potential of youngster and she didn't disappoint.      I hope Colturi skis for Albania forever. So much fun to cheer her with the Albanian flag.    I don't get it why everyone is being so critical of Colturi, you got no right to criticize a personal decision, as most European nations use imported athletes in many sports like wrestling and cheer them on like their.   Would you spend hours criticizing Frank Chamizo for switching to Italy rather than playing for Cuba? 
    • europe will arrest Satanyahu except hungary
    • Wooow Canada    Trudeau Confirms Canada Will Arrest Satanyahu Upon Visit After World Court Order   https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.ndtv.com/world-news/canada-to-go-uk-way-on-netanyahu-arrest-trudeau-says-will-abide-by-icc-warrant-7086684/amp/1   This is the response of jew lobby : we gonna destroy the canadian economy      
    • It may also be that Ceccerelli saw that the conditions in the Italian youth teams were very poor and that is why she insisted on setting up her own team (the results of young Italian skiers unfortunately confirm this). A private team will always be better than a team with 10-12 skiers with max. 3-4 coaches, a one doctor and a physiotherapist. Colturi is the only skier in her team and she has several coaches, a masseur, a doctor etc. Of course, it costs money, but since the parents are famous and have money + Red Bull got involved. I don't understand why she can't start for Italy again? Red Bull should care more that Colturi starts in Cortina under the Italian flag than the Albanian one + Red Bull, as a brand, always has a bigger sales market in Italy with a population of 60 million than in small Albania. I hope that this can still be reversed by next year. For this we need talks between the federation + Colturi's parents + Red Bull + possibly the Italian Olympic Committee. Colturi may be a skier equal to Brignone or even better in the future. We can't lose her, so we have to do now!
    • I`m very disappointed with this weekend. Only becouse of Ghiotto form I`m happy. Unfortunately, the women's team will not function well if Lollobrigida skips most of the training camps and Fontana starts alternately in short tack and long track. It will end with her not winning any medals here or there, because it`s already clear that it will be very difficult to achieve good results in long track. I hope that she understands this, because in short track she has a real chance of winning medals in the women's relay and the mixed relay but in long track not.
    • Tragic performance of the Italian women's team - last place and probably something bad happened at the start. There are so few starts in the team that it will be a problem to even qualify for the World Championships - 8 best teams. After Lollobrigida's return and Fontana's addition, I was counting on much more, but it seems that there are too few joint trainings. With individual quality, we have no right to lose to the Czechs without Sablikova, or anonymous Korea. And unfortunately this start will count for a lot, because there are only 2 more and our chances of playing at the World Championships are minimal. In my opinion with Fontana going from Short Track to Long Trackand vice versa, we won't be much use in the team. Here great teamwork is needed, not improvisation. As of today, there is very little chance that we will qualify the women's team for the games.
    • men advanced to Division A for the first time since 2018 (when they went 1-8). Don't expect much progress next year
    • Ok, but there we are talking about a person who has parents from different countries. Colturi has nothing to do with Albania.
    • There are few people here from Austria, Switzerland, Norway and Finland.
