no, Chinese commentators are right (also the Italian commentator -Michele Antonioli, former world champion and Olympic medallist- said immediately that, well before the judges announced their decision)...

 

this time China didn't have a particularly favourable treatment...

Right. It'd be cool if they also actually use this rule in regular relays, since there normally bad luck is simply that: bad luck and you're out. Unless someone actually commits a penalty, unlike this here.

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

Interesting that Japan and Norway are pretty much nonexistant in short track while being great in speed skating. Also Italy being that good in short track is really surprising to me. Doesn't seem like a "natural" sport for them. I am not sure about their future on the women's side, but on the men's side they have two great talents in Sighel and Spechenhauser.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.
