Pedersen seems to win stage 5 despite being nearly killed off on the short final climb by teammate Vacek

Impressive job mate, well done

Much as I agree with this wholeheartedly, one remark out of fairness on the broadcast: instead of on some channel, TCR TV actually broadcasts the races live (and of course on-demand) on YouTube, the single best way for basically any sport to stream their events But besides that, yeah...it's unbelievable. ETCC was awesome, then it became WTCC and that was still cool with lots of hard racing. Now it's mostly just a few riders that make you think "why are you not going for something more relevant, you have talent?!" plus a huge bunch of different locals every round.

Belgium. Like it or not (I didn't, particularly ), but it was one of the favourites. 5th or so at the bookies before the SF.

They were dead-last at the bookies?

Epilepsy triggers to close out the semi

I honestly think they didn't even notice I went upstairs But I meant San Marino in this case, if not exactly good, at least that was...fun

I mean, at least it's fun

Watching at home with two Brazilians...being quiet for 3 seconds was too much of a challenge, let alone 15x 3 minutes Now I'm watching alone, how are you guys enjoying the show, alone, with family, friends?

Did subtitle rules change to allow Italy to have the entire song subtitled?

If it wasn't for the invasion, I'm not sure Ukraine would make the final here.

Estonia...no.

Iceland definitely leading the way after the first two.

27 out of 52 participating nations have ever won, Malta hasn't, that is correct. Hooooooowever, Malta is the most succesful non-winning nation ever, with two second and two third places!

That is not really in anyone's mind in the West, to be fair. Like, not at all. China? That, yes, absolutely.

Didn't listen everything yet but so far I'm certainly cheering for Sweden and especially Australia

Judging by the overall state of the world when it comes to many subjects regarding very basic human rights, I'm sadly not so sure of that..but I share the hope, definitely.

Meanwhile in the Dutch Eredivisie, Ajax had a 9-point lead on PSV with 7 matches to go. They haven't been doing well since, but yesterday they could claim the title for the first time (this season of course); if Feyenoord beat PSV, and Ajax beat 13th ranked N.E.C., they would be champions. Feyenoord took a 2-0 lead, but PSV came back and claimed a last-minute 2-3 win. Alright, no loss for Ajax of course, they were about to pick up 3 points at home against N.E.C. anyway......but then lost 0-3 Now the difference, with two matches to go, is only 1 point between Ajax and PSV

And the tens of thousands of French fans thought their hope for a new home winner was once again over after Quartararo crashed

Johann Zarco wins an absolutely crazy French Grand Prix in the MotoGP, the first Frenchman to win the top-class French GP in 71 years

I thought Italy already had that Good luck, and good work!

Yeah no, not really of course Just, there are so many titles nowadays for 'premium partner' for this and 'premium partner' for that, and whatnot, so I wonder if this means Stora Enso is gone from the FIS Nordic world championships (kind of a shame, this year they gave some cute little trees to all medal winners and some spectators), or if this is something that comes next to it at world championships.

That was a nice 2-hour or so ceasefire. Good job USA on negotiating that.

Another reason of there not being a perfect solution, and why a power of 2 as the number of teams is simply the only good one
