  1. What's the name of the channel? Maybe it's somewhere online on a less-than-legal stream or something
  2. By the way, a nice little backstory about Bruna: When she was a mountain bike athlete, she had to retire due to a serious heart condition that made her stop with any sort of hard physical activity. Eventually her coach (Jaqueline Mourão) managed to get an open heart surgery for her, but it took a long time to come back. Always when people were training, or even just playing games, she was told she couldn't participate because it was too dangerous. Only after two years (!) she could finally get back to competition, so she participated in one more mountain bike race to close her MTB-career in a good way instead of in a 'forced' way. She had already gotten to know roller skiing and was doing that in the months before (very, very easy, only looking at the technique because anything harder was too dangerous), and decided to switch to that - but after closing her MTB-career in a good way. Long story short: that first and last MTB-competition after two years of being forced to not do any kind of strong physical activity was on 23 February 2014. Today, exactly three years later, she is making her debut in a competition with all of the best female cross-country skiers in the world, so it's sort of a really special day
  3. Good luck Bruna Goals: - Beating Mika - Staying within 22.2 seconds of Jaque (she asked me "how close do you think I can get to Jaque?" and since I have absolutely no idea, I went for 22.2 and if she manages to do that, I'll take her out to dinner when she visits the Netherlands )
  4. I don't see it on the Eurosport Player program, no idea where else to look..
  5. Too bad he missed five shots, but this is impressive speed
  6. Just making sure, but the qualifying isn't live streamed anywhere right?
  7. Cool! Finally an organization that's actually providing good photos (unlike Lahti 2017 where they put 15-20 photos online of an opening ceremony with half of them being from dancers..)
  8. Awesome! Thanks again Now I hope they'll make photos of Caio and Gabi as well today
  9. First she used doping but got caught, now she just starts more than one and a half hour early to try and win...this isn't fair
  10. Naomi van As of the Netherlands and John-John Dohmen of Belgium have been chosen as players of the year 2016 Full 'results' and the other awards can be found here: http://www.fih.ch/events/hockey-stars-awards/hockey-stars-2016/hockey-stars/winners/
  11. Ah damn it, I only see Ribela, Lutz and Victor on the only opening ceremony photo featuring Brazil I found so far
  12. And if you only want to see a compilation of Solano..
  13. Interesting I'm pretty sure he'll get some extra applause tomorrow
  14. That was the plan, but the way I understood is that that was narrowly avoided
  15. And he spent 5 days in jail because people in France thought he was either smuggling drugs or being a terrorist, so one might understand he didn't have the best preparation ever
  16. Yes, and I have no reason to believe she won't start in the 10k classic, because she doesn't need to qualify for that
  17. That is so cool!! Thanks man, and be sure the athletes are happy with this too
  18. Eurosport Italy made a compilation of Solano's race
  19. Didn't they know it would be classic today?
  20. Ah yeah I noticed the same thing for Bulatovic last night when I went through the women's start list Exactly 1 classic race and she didn't start there neither https://data.fis-ski.com/dynamic/athlete-biography.html?sector=CC&competitorid=179261&type=result
  21. Maybe he didn't have papers or something, or they wanted to hold him in jail to make sure he wouldn't 'escape' into Paris or something, no idea
