Didn't you have an Italian flag or something as your UI? I'm surprised how easy it is to forget what someone's UI actually looked like once you don't see it anymore

Did the French thread always have this name?

Host seems pretty...interesting, for a bit of fun horror that is Why would anyone specifically not want to watch a COVID-related film other than a film where it's basically just about some regular person's regular boring life with the only difference being there's a lockdown

Roy van den Berg, Nils van 't Hoenderdaal and Theo Bos will be fighting in Grenchen today to decide who will go to Tokyo as starter in the team sprint.

There is a western camp in modern pentathlon?

@hckosice Veronika Machyniakova came through all shootings without a single miss, first one to do so today

Not entirely necessary, the Ridnaun IBU Cup last season was shown with some static cameras and combined with live timing that worked fairly well (for a second-tier event)

Oh what bullshit is that

I believe there's around 170k people vaccinated here (the first time, at least), 75% of the vaccines are still waiting in freezers. Not sure, but I think laying around in a freezer is not how the vaccine protects people Meanwhile Germany and Austria are obligating a higher level of masks, so it's only a matter of time for that to happen in other countries as well (and they are freaking expensive). Here in the Netherlands there's some 'protests' against the curfew, which is the nice word for criminal youth rioting in many places because they've got nothing to do with their lives and see an opportunity to destroy property, as per usual with these kind of things.

Fairly sure last year Eurovision had everything (except for in the few countries mentioned, unfortunately for you) and Eurosport had the weekend events. And for the youth/junior worlds I believe the first events were nowhere and only the final events were shown.

Brazil's world championships clothes. They are....clothes. https://www.instagram.com/p/CKhfpbZguvA/

This really makes me wonder why on earth some student (?) decides to write about Swiss biathlon's history in the 50's and 60's....I mean, how much more obscure do you want to make it? Which is not to say it's not interesting, because it absolutely is!

PEN because of pushing Selma Poutsma past Prosvirnova in the last meters of the final, so Poutsma could end up with a bronze medal in the overall....yeah, that's not allowed and they both ended up with a big fat PEN next to their name

It's actually very good indeed. 42,7 in Salt Lake last season and 42,6 in Inzell two months ago, that is a very significant improvement already. 2022 is definitely going to be too early, but if she keeps it up, 2026 does not at all seem unrealistic. Cool!

This official acceptance of the quota, how is that done? A certain letter or form or something? Just curious about the paperwork that makes things official

Exactly. Basically Bolshunov tried to get into a space that did not exist. Yeah, then it goes wrong. Although it would still be great to finally get an angle from the front from the moment they're still in the corner. The replays started a little too late.

There are riots going on in the Dutch city of Eindhoven at the moment. They say it's against the COVID-19 restrictions, but it's not even a week since Donald Trump left the White House...coincidence?

6:05.14 for Patrick Roest in Heerenveen...just, wow. That is absurd Track record by over three seconds, after years of marginal improvements

Just tagging @brunamoura who has...let's say, an opinion on the move of Mäki I'm against that opinion by the way, this was all on Bolshunov.

Excellent day for the North Americans so far.

The bad news is that Van der Poel most likely will miss out on the 10k at the world championships, unless he beats Engebraten's time (unlikely) in the A division next week or someone withdraws. ISU's criteria to qualify for the 10k via the 5k are total insanity

Dear lord what a times, and that's only the B division (sure, it was a start with 4 riders per race, but still)

Kugelblitz But Clarey

Oh yes, I can totally see Clarey's potential win being stopped due to weather.
