Day from the last resort for Team Italy: the cross-country skiers with the daunting task of increasing the tally of four medals overall and try to fill the box of gold medals. In the team sprint scene, waiting for the race as the colors of Italy in the program of nordic skiing, especially in the female version. Arianna Follis and Magda Genuine (in photo with the Brocard) have shown over the last couple seasons of being the most competitive in this event when it plays the role of the free technique. Are obviously the uncertainty about the state of the form of Arianna Follis understated both in the extent to which 10 tl skated the chase. In great shape seems to be rather Magda Genuin, unexpectedly arrived at the final closed-to fifth place in the sprint-tc. The absence of Majdic weakens what-on-paper was to be the most credible rival, Slovenia, which will rely on Katja Visna and Vesna Fabjan to compose a couple still very competitive. As we saw here on the slopes of the Olympic Park are also very afraid of the Swedish Anna Haag and Charlotte Kalla, both have a medal around his neck. Do not line up the top athletes Norway and Finland, will represent the Scandinavian Jacobsen and Brun-Lie, while the Finnish and Sarasoja Roponen put on your skis. Outsider role for Germany and Russia, so far rather evanescent in the individual events.
In the men's race the field of suitors for medals seems to be more open. Petter Northug will seek its first Olympic gold accompanied by Oeystein Pettersen, his ambitions will be revealed in the second rounds of the two batteries in which the Norwegians if they see now with the feared Russian Nikolay Morilov and Alexey Petukhov. On the other hand, will be our first Renato Pasini and Cristian Zorro Zorzi-World Champions 2007 in Sapporo in this race that will test a tangible rivals Hellner and Peterson for Sweden and Switzerland for Tambornino-Cologne. Role as an outsider to Kazakhstan and France carried by Chebotko and Vittoz, respectively. Qualifiers from 19.45, the final 22:00.
Users also be allocated for the dance. At the Pacific Coliseum from 1-.45 - couples take to the track for the free program. Notes on the soundtrack of "Requiem for a Dream"-will perform Cappellini Lanotte, and "The Emigrants" by Nino Rota will be the background to the movements of Faiella-Scali. The latter also tried to fill the six points that separate them from the Russians Domnina-Shabalin and medals. Leading The original dance is after the Canadians Virtue-Moir before the U.S. Davis-White.
It closes the program of ski jumping with the team trials. Bookmarks undisputed the Austrians led by two-time bronze Gregor Schlierenzuer; with him Loitzl, Kofler and Morgenstern in order of appearance. Norway, Finland and Germany, the lapsed-distant rivals.
Good Olympics,
