Where is the qualification thread? Anyways, according to the provisional standings, Vietnam is currently qualified for women's monobob, while Cambodia is only 8 pts outside of the qualification zone. Crazy.

Aščić zasad na čekanju, ali izgleda da bi ipak mogla upasti. To bi bio fenomenalan uspjeh za klizački savez. Bob zasad upadaju kao 29. (od 30) u dvojcu, i kao zadnji u četvercu. Bit će gusto, ali Nizozemci će najvjerojatnije (ali ne i 100% sigurno) odbiti svoje tako da bi se moglo pronaći još po jedno mjesto. Dvojac nažalost možda ispadne zbog diskvalifikacije u Whistleru, morat će tražiti rezultat u Europi nakon turneje po Sj Americi. Jamajčani međutim imaju već dva loša rezultata tako da bi ih mogli naši tu preskočiti.

Honestly, a variant that appears to have possibly come from HIV (?) seems rather dangerous.

I'm baffled. Aščić is 33rd in the rankings (when counting max 3 per NOC), how can she be in the Top 32 then? Don't give me false hopes guys.

ESP commentator has just introduced Nina O'Brien as "Andreas Wellinger from Germany".

And to make matters even weirder, unlike today, the previous PB wasn't even with clean shooting. It was with 1+1.

Only if Crnković stays 36th. He placed 37th in Oberhof sprint (2016/17). That was a massive outlier.

Crnković

Western European League - Stage 2 (Lyon, FRA) Isabell Werth (Weihegold) - 84.910% Nanna Skodborg Merrald (Atterupgaards Orthilia) - 83.695% Frederic Wandres (Duke of Britain) - 81.640% Full results... Western European League - Stage 3 (Madrid, ESP) Helen Langehanenberg (Annabelle) - 80.500% Beatriz Ferrer-Salat (Elegance) - 79.220% Juan Matute Guimon (Quantico) - 78.160% Full results...

Another unwatchable/irregular race in Sochi. But since the Germans always end up on top in these, FIL has zero incentive to change anything.

Yeah, the media needs their clicks.

Toby Olubi used the breaks long before the finish. Not only embarrassing, but also DQ-worthy.

Johaug is in the worst shape of her life?

It's rather... interesting, how much the Chinese team has improved in a season spent in an isolation and without competition. Some of them are on course to beat/match their decade old personal bests.

Wow Lescinskaite is on a mission.

We literally just lost the quota in a photo finish... Yay....

Italy is going to take the bronze quite easily. The Norwegian team has no chemistry.

Apparently tens of sleds got stuck in China and didn't get transported in time for Sochi. Brilliant organization! They must check of course if the athletes were smuggling cocaine in their sleds for the Chinese youth.

The Netherlands has awarded 60 points (4.00 per edition), while Brazil has returned 55 points (3.67 per edition). Pretty balanced, but indeed not quite enough to be classified under a strong two-sided pattern (a collusion if you will).

I'd say it's New Zealand who actually got the luckiest draw. Beating Panama might be enough.

No. That would be a little awkward since we shared a country (and a lot of history in general) with one of these.

Slovensko means Slovenian.

Most of our words are completely different, except for Kanada, Litva and Ukrajina which are the same. How random.

112 points (7.47 per shared edition).

I will have to check the exact number when I get home, but I remember it was over 7 per edition.
