Bobsleigh IBSF World Cup 2020 - 2021

The season has gotten underway :cheer: 

 

Mariama Jamanka and Vanessa Mark lead the way after the first run, closely followed by Katrin Beierl and Jennifer Odasanya. Sadly my favourite Laura Nolte crashed in the first run, she was well on her way to at least attack Jamanka's time :( 

 

Run two coming up!

Jamanka wins it, Beierl keeps the distance the same in run two, that's promising for the season (I know there's German tracks to go though :p). Kalicki in third.

 

Since Dutch women in bobsled are long gone, we're claiming Odasanya's second place (she's born in the Netherlands and apparently still spends a lot of time here, unless the boyfriend mentioned in an article isn't her boyfriend anymore) :p

Doesn’t help that the second and third biggest women’s programs are sitting this one out.

Yeah, it's hard to have big start list without N. America, China and Russia.

First of all, that's women's side of this sport, not entirely sport. Second, there are much higher requirments to compete in Bobsleigh WC than NTL (for example only three countries can have three teams). And despite this we had athletes from 13 countries in women's bobs last season. In women's NTL WC it was 16. Not so big difference. I also would like to see NTL at olympics but seriously, what's with this bobs criticism about?

    • @bestmen Look, I've been reading your comments regarding Russia for quite some time, and I don't want to bite my tongue this time.   First, context matters. I agree with @copravolley. It’s not an insult to say that people who don’t live near Russia often underestimate what this war actually means for Europe. Out of the three of us, I can say with certainty that I feel the most directly affected by and concerned about this war.   In the same way I wouldn’t share my opinions on Africans and the conflicts on their continent, or lecture Palestinians about the war in Gaza, it’s reasonable to listen first when Europeans explain why this is not just a political disagreement that happens to block Russian athletes from competing, but an ongoing war of aggression that doesn’t only affect Ukraine, but also countless other countries located nearby with a long and dramatic history of communism and Russian influence. To make it clear, you're absolutely entitled to your opinion. However, you have repeatedly pushed the same narrative about the supposed injustice towards Russian competitors.   Second of all, the claim that Russian athletes have nothing to do with politics is blatantly wrong. It's a lie, and you know it. Countless Russians are actively supporting the crimes that Russia is committing on Ukrainian soil, advocating for further military operations, and show little to no remorse. Many Russians supported Putin throughout his presidential campaigns and continued doing so even after the invasion. Just look at their public statements made over the past three years. They are expected to align with the state’s narrative. That’s not an individual moral judgment, it’s how the system works.   Major Russian sports clubs are directly linked to or derived from the military. Hockey players wear war symbols and slogans on their jerseys, and this is only the tip of the iceberg. Russian sports and politics are two sides of the same coin, closely related ever since the state began pouring money into centralised doping programs and sporting propaganda. Bringing up Netanyahu or Israeli doping is pretty much just whataboutism. If there is proven, systematic wrongdoing in sport, it should be addressed through proper investigations and sanctions. That does not magically erase or excuse Russia’s actions, nor does it justify pretending this war doesn’t exist when it becomes inconvenient.
    • This video is just about the poic "Russia-Ukraine Crisis Consequences in Sports"

    • Slovakia pulled the goalie out in the Overtime and played 4 vs 3  for more than 2 minutes    We suddeenly pulled out goalie and have control of the puck for like 2 minutes in the first 2 minutes of the overtime but without soring than lost the puck and give up a 2 on 0 breakaway empty net goal for the czechs    Interesting strategy 
    • The doomongering made what I post on here seem positive. Everything possible to go wrong was predicted fo go wrong.
