It's annoying how the live streams aren't available yet as on-demand video as soon as the race is finished :mad: 

 

FIL's live streaming system having these annoying flaws, IBSF messed up their YouTube channel so it's not possible to pause and rewind a live stream anymore (and you have to watch either live entirely or on-demand entirely)....the streaming world is going backwards :p 

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!

More annoying was having to click on video thumbnails with literal spoilers to watch yesterday's sprints. :p

Yes, but I am used to that by now since that's almost always the case. Sometimes the thumbnail is a random picture, but usually - also in World Cups - it's something like athlete A cheering, a screenshot from athlete B crossing the line in 1st or even the podium :lol: 

 

Once you're used to that, it's fine though, just use your hand to cover the video and scroll in such a way that you only see the title of the video, then click. Yeah it ain't ideal :d But it's a viable workaround at least.

Let's just say the mathematical odds of Germans being drawn 1st and 2nd were at an astonishing 48 to 720 (roughly 6-7%). :whistle:

Does the seeded group really consist of only 6 doubles? I thought it were 12 sleds (in that case the probability for two certain German sleds being drawn at 1st and 2nd starting position would be only 1,5% ;-) ) By the way, the starting order is drawn in public (so the rules say at least)

Thanks Bertechsgades organizers for proving how much of a part the refrigiration plays.

 

This morning the course was melting left and right, due to "weather conditions".

 

Max Langenhan opens the first singles run with a track record.
