Hungary sends Brazil up to the 3rd place on the board and helps Ukraine out by giving their first points today. That's the end of session 1, Malta will lead during the first break, but this is only just the beginning. Meanwhile Czech Republic and Slovakia will figure out if 0+0 still equals 0. Hopefully they will be on the board by the end of the next session.

And now we will visit Colombia, who are currently 3rd, please reveal your votes @Damian.

I can make a very educated guess that most likely has a 100% success rate, but that would ruin the fun.

"Spain 9"? I know, I know, it was "Spain 12". But they can win if continue to get 9 points from every jury. is still going 4/4! And so far none of the nations got more than one medal from the juries. Which means that even one medal can still shoot you up a lot of places as the gold medal did for . It's still very early but people in Spain must be getting excited because of this great start. So let's call Madrid and see who they voted for. It's your turn @Cobi at 10:18 CEST.
