  1. Fractured tibia for Goggia. No surgery required but six weeks on the hook. Obviously season is over
  2. Well, Jimmie Johnson looked slooooow out there tbh. I fear his IndyCar tenure will be a total disaster now.
  3. #10 Acura wins (Albuquerque/Castroneves/Rossi/R.Taylor). Terrible TV direction who missed the late change for 2nd place (#48 Cadillac passed #55 Mazda).
  4. The Dutch curse strikes! Though Chip Ganassi losing the race in such fashion is not a bad thing
  5. Well, auto racing is too expensive for FIA and IMSA to keep the different regs stance for the sake of local purity. The pandemic hit will only speed up the ineviteable process. It hope it works better than DTM adopting the Super GT regs and still ending up on the floor (which basically mirrored their mid 90s demise).
  6. Audi ditched Formula E (funny how that is viewed second-rate now that it has lost the "new age" aura) and confirmed they will be back at LeMans in 2022. If they really wanted to build a DPi that would be a true swing for the fences!
  7. Racing Team Nederland... in yellow & black Maybe sponsored by Vitesse Arnhem? Btw, this is the same Jumbo as Jumbo-Visma? Guess they have some money to spend?
  8. @Olympian1010 I believe heywood is more of a Rinus fan than van der Zande. Besides Chip Ganassi isn't that of a fan favorite to begin with
  9. I know that. Tell that to IMSA though. Ligier & Oreca should be in LMP2 and LMP3 should be scraped alltogether IMO. Bad news for @heywoodu #29 Racing Nederland is out and Rinus VeeKay didn't even turn a single lap. They crashed on the oil laid by #20 and suffered terminal gearbox problem.
  10. LMP3 is the new PC. Meh. Endurance racing doesn't need a "junior" class like that. It's just field filler whom nobody really cares about. Ligier should take the battle to Oreca in LMP2 and now it looks like both can dominate each class without much competition.
  11. Well, our biathlon fed twitter feed remains on top as usual
  12. The course was terrible, couldn't hold up at all. Doesn't bode well for tomorrow. Lara Gut seems to gave gotten to her best form from 5-6 years ago. She owns the Super G this season. Don't know what's up with Corinne Suter? MM Gagnon finally back on the podium, I thought that won't happen again. Also good to see KV Lie not choking on race day for a change. Probably because it wasn't a downhill
  13. The first hour was total amateur clown show. Do these guys realize the race lasts 24 hours?

  15. Johaug LOST a 10km race? Did she have a fall or something? Ran the wrong route?
  16. Given the widespread Russian bans in biathlon he did a very lousy job of helping them indeed
  17. Next elections in Poland are in 2023 so if Law & Justice ever wanted to play hardball with the anti-abortion law, the perfect timing was last fall especially with COVID still being somewhat relevant. The bill was passed last November, now it's just being made official. Thankfully for L&J teenagers either don't have the right to vote (if someone is 14yo or 15yo today) and this group is usually the least reliable among voters anyway (unlike seniors and elders who simply don't have better things to do than to go and vote). Come 2023 there will be a ton of other topics on the agenda, two years is forever in politics.

  19. Maria Lasitskiene would strongly disagree with your take Unless the aim changed since 2016 which makes the whole integrity reasoning total BS.
  20. The meaning is simple, IOC, FIS and VADA can't get out of their own way, they can punish Russia but they can't punish Russians. Everyone knows Kuzmina's story and I bet people in Slovakia consider her more Slovakian than the Fialkova sisters
  21. I just wanted to point out the whole integrity part is just cherry pickings. I mean even UEFA banned ALL English teams from taking part in European Cups after the Heysel disaster. Hell, they showed more integrity than FIS and IOC ever did with Russia As for Kuzmina, well, it's not like FIS can prevent Russians from changing nationality either
  22. Not to mention the uniforms can be in national flag colors Let's get real, fans on TV don't pay much attention to emblems to begin with. They're usually too small to be noticed anyway. But hey, integrity! Let's ban the national flag but not the national flag colors? Would be hilarious if FIS told Russians to compete in purple and green or whatever. But they didn't go that far. Why?
  23. But of course Russians can compete under their flag during World Cup and IBU Cup? Yeah, integrity and all that crap It's a shame Kuzmina has retired, I wonder what would they do with her?
  24. Nope. TV signal will only be produced on Saturday & Sunday.
  25. Feller blows it in vintage style. Schwarz wins. Popov 6th.
