Polish TV said her dominance only started when she began using Tina Maze's custom made skis which are Bugatti-like in this business. Of course all this when Ledecka won OG using Shiffrin's skis too.

Yeah, Vengaboys used to be quite big over here. They're still doing some concerts around New Year's Eve/carnival or in the summer disco events

Ilka Stuhec won the Val Gardena DH with Nicol Delago a career-high 2nd. Delago kinda hugged & cuddled her entire team after that result

We had the same after Nowakowska flunked the last leg of the Olympic relay and was swamped with online hate. It's funny because she was the team leader that only returned after her pregnancy for us to have a shot at Top 8 and the government funding for the next 4-year cycle. She later admitted she should have never read the social media comments that accused her of going on a trip on taxpayers money (and that was a mild comment). I hope Poliakova recovers from this nonsense!

I only care about personalities in sports I'm a die-hard fan of and that's like 3 or 4 at best. Luge ain't one of them and never will be. If ES didn't broadcast the sport, I'd never look up for online streams to watch it.

Because different people cheer for different agenda. Some choose single athletes from various nations, some cheer for the entire nations. You can even cheer for Team Sky if you're a cycling fan! There's no one fixed way of cheering if you're looking outside of your nation (and even so, some people are fed up with their own compatriots too).

Right. I adore the flag diversity in table tennis when you have Chinese represent like 25 other countries. One-nation dominance kills my interest in ANY sport. I've had enough when Sylke Otto was spanking everyone already Good thing I'm not old enough to remember the East German dominance of the 70s/80s. 40 years of Germany spanking everyone in luge. No, but thanks!

For once Bayern doesn't draw a scrub in R16

I have no idea how can anyone get excited after another German dominance in luge? Lake Placid was supposed to be a bogey track for them anyway? At least grandma Hufner is struggling a bit!

Nur Ali and Basil Shabaan? No, thanks. One thing A1 GP did great was going back to old school tracks like Kyalami or Brands Hatch. The quality of drivers was suspect besides France, Germany and GB. Neel Jani proved to be a horrible disappointment away from A1GP and I thought he had a shot at F1 back then. Formula E track selection is soulless. But they are chasing big cities downtown to create easy access for the fans. Saudi Arabia was just a bank robbery, there's nothing there except the sheiks' oil money to jump on.

WEC, IMSA and endurance racing in general are gentlemen racing level where going 100% at 100% time is no longer required. Whenever I see Tracy fuckin' Krohn I simpy quit. The Audi dominance has killed my interest in endurance racing, then it was Porsche and now Toyota. Sorry but if you complain about F1 how could you find Audi's walk in the park even remotely exciting. That horse is dead to me.

I've followed NASCAR more or less since 1993 so you won't convince me on that Bringing up WEC in the era where even Toyota's mechanics could win LeMans as drivers is not the best example.

NASCAR? 3/4 of the drivers there can't turn right to save their lives. WEC is a pensioners' series or the ones who can't buy themselves a F1 seat. F1 spits out the best of talent in ruthless fashion. The last potential top tier talent who didn't go there was probably Tom Kristensen alas he was already 30 yo when he contested F3000. Similar problem befell Kenny Brack.

So which series has the best drivers? All FE champions have been in F1 before anyway

Well, you won't hear Red Bull complain they're down 40 hp on Mercedes. Overall though, FE has been taken over by the big manufacturers like I feared whenever the series gained some momentum. The small teams have been phased out and now it's an economy race just like in F1. So they're going the same path as F1 but with gimmick Mario Kart rules and sprint races (plus F1 drop outs and never-beens as drivers).

Michelle Gisin said her brother regained consciousness in the hospital and remains in stable condition. https://web.de/magazine/sport/wintersport/ski-alpin/marc-gisin-stuerzt-abfahrt-groeden-schwer-33468448

It's a spec series with the boost power limited for all teams. Technically all 22 drivers should be able to win these races.

The Mario Kart rules will probably be shit. No series can handle the lack of overtaking but FE makes it even more difficult given all the street circuits. Races will be 45 mins + 1 lap. That's borderline trash if you want to upstage F1 as the best series on the world. That's a glorified sprint but hey, old man Massa won't complain. He finally has a chance to speak as the 'Alpha' driver which wasn't the case in F1 Besides, F1 goes all sensitive with removing the grid girls (but not the sponsors' models) and FE kicks off in Saudi Arabia, the most human-friendly country in the world!

Val Gardena is no stranger to a season-ending injury almost every season.

Hojnisz 4th but the form is still there. It can easily be linked to Nadia Belova's return as head coach.

Hojnisz could hope for 3rd. Fialkova and Kaisa will chase her down.

Hojnisz 20/20!!!

Hojnisz 15/15
