New world record in the junior (under 19) individual 3000m pursuit for boys. Previous record 3:12.416 by Bissiger (SUI) 2016 New record 3.10.141 by Ethan Vernon (GBR) in the heats of GB Junior championships. Later the same day he did 3.10.4 in the final.

Amazing. Caught because he posted a picture of himself receiving the intravenous infusion on Instagram How did he get a university degree with a brain that really doesn't work very well?

You mean one organization running bobs for the 2 countries not a joint BEL-NED crew?

Yes it is. It lives in Zagreb now...

Stars of the Championships. Maria Vicente (obviously) Heptathlon / triple jump gold Sarah Healy 1500/300 Max Burgin - destroying the race in the 800m

This is an old joke but still funny.
