Yeah,it's the first time i have heard of speedway as a sport,and yeah i suppose him having a huge following would lead him to finishing way higher than i would expect. And i guess football is a huge thing in Poland too. I don't know how much interest in Lithuania we have left for our own team ,we have nothing to show for the support[well not mine i hate football] but decades of thrash. Also we have our sport award ceremonies where the best athlete male and female best team,best coach and all that are revealed,no rankings here.

think i would be pissed too if i was him,if i got beat by a golfer and a go kart racer personally

Absolutely,do not mean any disrespect with my response,i'm just still passionate for this sport tough,even if the passion isn't as big as it was a few years ago,and i now hate the governing body of it.

hardy har har,dying of laughter over here

Yeah,Ferry blew a gasket about it on live Tv apparently but nope no dq

It can exist without the olympics but the highest thing to be for someone who does that then is world champion,not the same level,obviously.I got your point,i need to point out tough You said it wouldn't be unfair if it went......it would objectivly be extreamly unfair for it to go over something like boxing.Pentathlon has gone through hoops and demands one after another from the ioc to modernise,first from five days to one,[tough since rio it has gone back up to 2,less athletes competing,used to be 64 men competing up to 1992 for quite awhile[in what other sport did they demand for the amount of people competing to go down],the guns also changing several times till the current laser pistol era,the bonus fencing round,no matter how dumb i found that to beobviously the biggest change being the combined event of Running and shooting coming in the 2009 world cup season, [that has went from 3 laps of 1 km to four laps of 800 metres all for quicker wiewing] and debuting in London,which apparently went really well there,there now somehow trying to make the event go 90 minutes,how that will work i don't know,apparently it has not worked so far,there are now semifinals,instead of just qualification and finals.It has changed the most out of any sport in the olympics really,and again the event at the olympics that caused the latest dramas and split in the federation was overdramatized,changed for people who have never and will never watch the sport,and the obstacle course thing is a garbage replacement for riding,so no it being replaced after all of that would not be fair at all,and would be a spit to the face of all the athletes competing in that past and present and you cannot convince me otherwise.

explain what the point of football being in the oympics is,the pros don't even play there,and football does not need the olympics whatsoever,Modern pentathlon does.Football can go,boxing can go.

Laser shooting has been there since 2011 as part of the whole thing,i think you mean the ridicoulous obstacle course crap,that is to replace riding

Horse Activists ruined my once favorite sport,the federation Overeacted to quite frankly a nothing burger[no one will convince me that Saint boy was in anyway traumatised or hurt,and certainly not by raisners[the german coach] love tap] to please people who never watched the sport anyway,i hope Schormann is gone very soon,so yes i'm team pentathlon united all the way.

''OH NO,TEENAGE GIRLS ARE UPSET,RUN FOR THE HILLS'' I just love when people think athletes owe and must agree with them on anything.

No worries about the memory.I did a search and found Vladimir Drachev,he did win four in a row,those were the last four sprints of the season tough,he had one third place finish in the first three,that four sprint run looks to be why he won the world cup that season too.

For the Lithuanian context,woohoo once again three Lithuanians in the pursuit,super glad Tomas finally made it in,the last time he competed in the pursuit was actually in the 2018 games.extreamly pleased with Dombrovsky scoring points by shooting perfectly,hope the pursuit goes great aswell,Fomin is progressing and can now fight for top 60 in every sprint with perfect or near perfect shooting,And i'm confident that Strolia can put in a good shooting performance to climb up quite a few places tomorrow,overall the team for the second time scored over 300 world cup points,so today as a whole was not bad at for Lithuanian biathlon.

A first time ever,at least as far as the men go apparently.

Jacquelin crashes out of the top 60 and will be dropping down the order tomorrow.

Also no Tero seppala as far as i can see.

Wow,less men starting in the sprint than women,that's weird and rare.

LOL,schneider,Schwaiger,dickinson all said in a row,made me crack a smile.Nice to see the Grenlandian girl made it in.Avakumova nabbing the last world cup point was great tv with the very much not Korean coach encouraging her,i guess they aren't banned from competitions,lmao.

honestly,this felt more boring than i was expecting.

Simon shot clear,we got a race .

YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY ELVIRA

Old vitozi is back

Ugh,Covid again,she was just hitting her stride,Samuelson and especially Hanna seem to be underperforming this year
