Surprising gold medal for :NED Joy Beune who had big doubts whether she should start here as the 1.500m that will be skated in about 3 hours from now is her favorite distance that she won in Quebec during the last World Cup weekend of the season.

Silver for the big favorite :NED Irene Schouten and bronze for the legend :CZE Martina Sáblíková

Joy Beune faster than Schouten :yikes:

Josh · February 18

The women's 5.000m about to start with :JPN Horikawa and :CAN Weidemann in pair 1. Both have good chances of finishing top 5 or even on the podium. It'll be interesting to see the time they can set.

The World Cup season 2023-2024 is now over. The World Championships in :NED Rotterdam will start on March 15th

:NED had by far their strongest weekend of the season, right before the World Championships in Rotterdam. The same goes for :POL in front of their home crowd and :KAZ showed under their new trainer that they're making great progress. Team :USA is also improving towards the World Championships.

:CHN had a poor showing, but that was expected with their senior team all competing in the Chinese National Winter Games, :ITA started the season off great in Montréal but in hindsight that seems to have been a positive outlier and :BEL also had their poorest showing of the season as well.

finally, I'm a bit disappointed by Pergher in the women's 500m as I expected her below the 38-sec mark, but she was a bit over that

Now 37.80 at the world championships. :yes

Sorry, I remembered this comment when I saw Pergher skate a PB two minutes ago. :zip:

Gold for :ITA in the men’s team pursuit :thumbup:

Silver for :NOR and bronze for :CAN

Josh · February 16

My first correct prediction this tournament. :cool:

:NED win the women’s team pursuit, silver for :CAN Canada and :JPN Japan wins bronze.

Josh · February 15

And gold for :CAN again, 0.002 seconds faster than :NED and bronze for :NOR

Top 6 teams within 0.23 seconds :yikes:

intoronto · February 15

:NED skates a new WR in pair 1, then :CAN improves that new WR in pair 2 by 0.01 second :lol:

Josh · February 15

And here is the gold medal for :CAN :thumbup:

Silver for :USA and bronze for :POL

9 medals awarded to 7 different countries so far

maestro · February 15

Gold for :NED Roest, silver for :ITA Ghiotto and bronze for :NOR Eitrem

Nice podium again with a clear top 3, but a little sad :FRA Loubineaud finished 4th. Would’ve been a great medalist

February 15

:FRA Loubineaud 6:12.15 :thumbup:

NearPup · February 15

Gold for :NED Schouten, silver for :CAN Weidemann and bronze for :CZE Sáblíková.

What a great first podium of this tournament with three amazing skaters! :thumbup:
