Monzanator

Will she even start? Fourcade won't start tomorrow according to Polish ES.

Since Koukalova has retired, I might well cheer for Fialkova now

Well, some random names getting PBs thanks to the improved track conditions late... Quite frankly Zbylut was one of them too

Random Slovenian shooting 3/10 on TV

Tracks are clearly faster now, Vita Semerenko almost upset everyone. Dahlmeier is cooked...

The snow has eased off so Dahlmeier actually got the lucky break.

I doubt her ski speed is up to par following the illness tbh.

Zbylut on TV? 10/10? That's two shocks in a row... Her PB is 39th so probably a career-day incoming...

Vitkova is ass-slow here... even behind Vittozzi.

Olsbu kills Fialkova's chances...

Vittozzi has blown it...

Fialkova FTW?

Didn't like Vitkova fire back that Koukalova is the real bitch and rest of the team actually sides with Vitkova?

Czech TV director ignoring Fialkova? How curious Makarainen with a meltdown...

Puskarcikova had a fall?

My knowledge of Czech gossip drama is limited If it keeps snowing all night, the later numbers are screwed...

Polish ES raving about Koukalova's book Guess that was all about burn every single bridge in the Czech bialthlon?

Well, it's all about finding excuses why Shiffrin keeps winning these days

Andrzej Nedza-Kubiniec with the fastest shooting time. But his skiing sucks as usual. And he missed 3 times too Lukasz Szczurek 42nd with 10/10. He should drop back in the 4-shoot race though. Who is this guy in 3rd place? His name sounds Finnish but he represents Sweden?

Why is Ligety even doing slalom?

Talk about a fast burner. She has been a complete wash-out the last few years and I get the feeling Katie Ledecky isn't getting half the hype Franklin got back in the day. USA will still get a gazillion of world class swimmers but Franklin has been reduced to a glorified footnote in swimming history IMO.

Our expert specifically said she knows that the Stoeckli master team that used to work with Maze is now working with Stuhec hence her sudden upgrade in results in 2016. Without it, she'd be a regular Top 15 performer but never a runaway DH standings winner and world champion. Val Gardena was a new track for women, nobody had any past experience here hence the technical aspects have been more important and the richest team could work their way around the obstacle. It's not about Veith; Puchner, Ager and Siebenhofer getting their best results of the season says more about the reality esp. that Veith actually criticized the track and due to her rather small frame she was never a gliding expert to begin with. Plus she made one big error in the DH.

We have a new female expert for the women races the past two years (former European Cup winner) and she says all these litte things that she said nobody has talked about before. It's funny since everyone follows the technical aspect in ski jumping or cross country but not in alpine skiing. She said the gliding courses like here in Val Gardena are particulary prone to a technical advantage of the richest teams and it's also the reason most of the B-team Austrians suddenly posted better than expected results (Siebenhofer, Ager, Puchner).

Olsson completely crumbled under pressure. Kranjec wins, Meillard & Faivre on the podium!

Hirscher with many errors! Good thing to know he can blow it too...
