scored the zwei to eins goal Right now they are in and FRA very likely will replace Russia

Yep. The only results you do not want HUN beating Germany in OT/PSO This only outcome will qualify both of them (well, Germany will have to wait for the Russian official ban ofc)

while biathlete Michaela Straková and alpine skier Oliver Tabačko were our flag bearers during the opening ceremony

Girls lost to Finland in Overtime in the semifinal Tomorrow bronze medal game against Sweden

Men's Downhill Final Results Franjo VON ALLMEN 1:40.68 Vincent KRIECHMAYR 1:40.92 Alexis MONNEY 1:40.99 Full Final Result HERE

All 4 Swiss in the Top 6

damn swiss and their fast skis

and Krichmayr now faster 0.07 than Monney, Very nice race so far

Alexis Monney 1.03 faster than Allegre ! Medal race ?

Nils allegre taking the early lead ahead of Rogentin thanks an amazing last sector

Well, first, Poland is not so bad and at 2, it was the opening match, the first games are often very complicated against weaker sides, because of motivation and all physical forces still present

Last time someone won the Major event downhill with bib 1 was Patrick Ortlieb in Albertville Olympics 1992, so just to say how uncommon is to win the major Downhill with starting number 1.

I am not persuaded they are worse than Slovakia, but yep, definitely worse than Japan. All teams of the final tournaments are worse than Japan except Sweden whichi is +/- at the same level, followed by a small margin by Germany, Denmark, Hungary and France. Then we have a bigger gap ahead of Slovakia, China and some other more or less equal level teams like Norway and Austria. The Netherlands are an anomaly here, they are benefiting here from the rather fortunate circumstances that occurred two years ago resulting in their fluke maintaining in the division, but their real level is I am afraid a bit inferior than what their seeding tend to suggest

Very likely yes, assuming the best ranked 2nd will take Russia´s spot, which in this case would be Sweden.

Fun fact. is super close of having both M & W teams in Milano despite failing to qualify in both of them That will be super weird the chances that it will happen are like 75 % right now I would say If Russia will not be eligible to play (which let be reall, we all know will not be) France will qualify as LL for the Men Tournament and if today vs match will not finish at least in Overtime and/or will not make a miracle by beating France will qualify also as LL for the womens tournament as well. Imagine that luck

Stage 17 in Lake Placid (USA) Mixed Team Large Hill: 1. Germany (Reisch/Raimund/Freitag/Wellinger) 963.6 2. Norway (Bjoerseth/Sundal/Kvandal/Forfang) 950.8 3. Austria (Eder/Hoerl/Seifriedsberger/Tschofenig) 941.8 Full Final Result HERE

Belinda won the Abu Dhabi title

I knew it was too early to think about Olympics for our girls, there still a lot of work to do, but it is going (slowly) but still going on the right direction, maybe in France 2030 we will be there, maybe 2034
