5 teams in the semi-final, you need to finish 3rd ou 4th to get to the B final and guarantee a top 8 (and be in a qualifying spot for the Olympics), you're battling for 3rd place but you have a comfortable lead to at least finish 4th. The team in 4th tries to overtake you in the last lap, what do you do :

- let go, you've ensured your qualification ;

- make a block, get DQed.

If you chose the second option then you're probably French :wall:

Admittedly, our athletes have raised their level in this sport, especially the girls (Aščić did a great job to advance from the preliminaries as the next fastest skater).

 

Still, the Olympic qualification will only happen with some Bradbury-esque outcomes.

Haha, that 1500m final :d Confortola, sir, you are magnificent :lol::bowdown: 

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!

Aurélie Monvoisin, who qualified for her first A final in the 500m suffered a broken shin in the same race :cry: Gutted for her ...

We only have two good women and one of them is now out of the picture :cry:

yeah, she had a very bad fall...but normally you get away with that with no major injuries...she's very unlucky...hope she gets well soon...

Why is ISU hiding the World Cup standings in 500/1500 m events? :wacko:

 

At any rate, Valentina Aščić advanced today and secured top 35 (min 10 points). Probably not enough by itself, but she gave herself a fighting chance for tomorrow... :fingers:
