After Khabib - McGregor I'm not so sure anymore that's a good thing At least I've never seen Sadulaev lose his shit yet

And rightly so, considering her preparation, or lack thereof.

Podium for Brignone after missing almost two months

Which, btw, doesn't take away that it's stupid to let team coaches set courses at all. That should be done by some FIS people or something.

I'm not so sure it makes most of the difference today, so we're gonna have to agree to disagree

Which in the end quite often doesn't really make much of a difference

Stjernesund getting a top-10 in her World Cup debut I know, conditions and stuff, but that is really, really impressive.

Probably, why not? It only makes sense for top athletes to have their personal team that's focussed entirely on them.

I don't really follow it outside of the sport so I don't know who are the nice guys and who are the assholes Just every time I watch a fight of Sadulaev he throws his opponent around like it's a 50kg junior or just pushes him down like he did with Snyder I can't even begin to imagine the raw power that guy has.

Just watched Sadulaev vs Snyder....mother of God Now that is called revenge

Again, room for improvement there Petra.

Hey Negative Nancy, run two has started as scheduled

Fingers crossed for Mountain Team

Except when it's about the women, because it's in Qatar and women don't matter there, so they moved the broadcast to some unfindable (at least online) channel.

Our commentator (supported by former Olympic snowboarding champion Nicolien Sauerbreij) completely ignored the whole thing Sauerbreij did briefly say "Gut, who had quite some private stuff going on this summer" but the guy ignored it and that was that

A few years ago this would have been such a magical combination to follow each other

Room for improvement there, Petra.

Well I had an aweome summer too and yet these pictures of snow and skiing make me feel all warm and fuzzy and everything

Bassino

Don't tell me you're one of them summerphiles

And don't complain, it's snowing, it's winter Seriously, I feel like a teenager who is in love for the first time

Better than a one minute downhill when it's shortened too much

Here. We. Go!

Heavy snowfall overnight, but according to Austrian media conditions, especially on the racing line, are excellent. The start has been confirmed for 10:00 CET, but they are using the 'reserve start', meaning a shortened race. An issue right now might be the fog, which at 08:00 was only in the finish area, but since then has climbed up a little. https://www.kleinezeitung.at/sport/wintersport/skialpin/5520139/WeltcupAuftakt-in-Soelden_Rennen-ist-bestaetigt-Strecke-wird-verkuerzt
