Exciting pursuit for the womebn at least!

Yeah, pursuits like this really shouldn't be in a stage race. If you want pursuits in a stage race, make them be like they were in stage two, where the classification after that stage was the result of the stage. So, starting in order of the classification, not the previous stage.
 
Also the way the last stage used to be and really should be.

Maybe good for the overall tour when it is tight between many racers but yesterdays indivual race was not worth much apparantly. Kläbo wins the race but in reality he lost because the tour is tighter now than yesterday

Absolutely  
 
Although still it's a bit weird to have this format. Diggins was by far the best today, for example, but it would have been much nicer if she had actually finished in her new position in the GC. Now you've got three separate rankings/fights in one single race:
 
- The result of the pursuit, based only on the day before
- The indivivual times for today
- The general classification, based on point two

The women's season is being quite fun so far and the Tour de Ski no less so  
 
After Tiril and Lotta Udnes Weng both getting their first ever World Cup victory, today Katharina Hennig sprinted to her very first won in impressive fashion  
 
That was a fun race and especially a fun last kilometer, impressive work by Niskanen as well all throughout the second half of the race.

Men’s Final starts at 15:00 UK 16:00 Europe - It is indeed Retornaz v Mouat.

Perth Master is about to starts, team Mouat and team Retornaz are in. 
 
Livestreaming: https://www.perthmasters.com/

Typically tight game, but just one slightly loose shot from Retornaz in the 8th end gives it to Mouat.

My team at 4-0 so far in the Swedish super league  

Valerie Grenier wins giant slalom gold in Kranjska Gora, Slovenia. Her first career World Cup medal. She finished in a combined two run time of 1:55.01, snapping Mikaela Shiffrins five race win streak (She finished 6th). Italian Martina Bassino (1:55.38) won the silver medal, while Pétra Vlohova (1:55.41) won the bronze medal to complete the podium.
