Accompanied by a certain sadness to results far below expectations, continues the commitment of the blue on the snow-and ice-the XXI Olympiad. The focus of today will warm the hopes of Olimpia Max Blardone and Davide Simoncelli at all, but is also the day on 10 000 and Enrico Fabris of entry to race Carolina Kostner in the short program of figure skating. Rain and temperatures well above zero, this is framed in the giant slalom in Whistler Creekside on the program today. Very conditions that should reward skiers will start with low chest. To unravel further the track, the decision not to strike through final stretch of the same. Easy to foresee that after the first runs, the bottom of the track can be transformed into a real quagmire. Bookmarks compulsory first athletes to take off: Hirscher , Cuche and Blardone the first three. Unlucky Ligety, who has fished the 7. They will join the usual Raich-back from disappointment in super-well and Janka Jansrud, this very bright in the slalom on Sunday. Fortunately, the blue of the second subgroup: Simoncelli fished the 9, 10, finished on the back of Ploner, while Moelgg fall to 13 degrees. The bib 31 seems to cut out Bode Miller, who came on all stages of the race early this season. First round-the-endless 18:30, second at 22.00.
At 20.00 back on track Enrico Fabris, it will do about 10 000 in his last individual commitment. And 'the race in which Henry seems less competitive on paper: the distance has only a silver at the world single distances in 2008. The "hardness" of ice could make the race more difficult than it already is a 10 000. The man to beat remains the neederlandese Sven Kramer that the oval of Richmond won the world title last March in the distance. On what is a true living legend of figure skating a few flutters alarm after the ostentatious effort in the last meters of 5000. A groped the bang will be on all the fellow Bob de Jong-best in the last thousand meters of the race debut, Ivan Skobrev, which already boasts the bronze medal in middle distance and the Norwegian Havard Bokka, third in 1500. But attention to the possible surprise represented by Frenchman Alexis Contin appeared in enviable shape in the second half of 5000 and also on the distance between the best Europeans of all around-Hamar in January. Fabris will be provided in the third last of the eight batteries.
triggered the .30 at 1 hour Carolina Kostner engaged in the short program. The Bolzano fall on the ice at the Pacific Coliseum last but one of thirty skaters. To accompany it, like the Europeans, the poignant notes of the Nocturne No 20 Fredric Chopin . In the "proud" of harmony and femininity eyes on favorite Yu-Na Kim and Japanese Miki Ando, \u200b\u200bMao Asada and Akiko Suzuki. A look deserve the grace of Finnish Kiira Korpi and Laura Lepisto. Finally a mention for the personal drama of Canadian Joannier Rochette will be on the Olympic skating rink despite the great loss that has been victim of Mother Theresa's death, which occurred just the other day in Vancouver.
Day brackets for the women's biathlon and Nordic combined, in both cases is scheduled to be blue. With skiing and rifle on his shoulder will be Katja Haller, Michela Ponza, Karin Oberhofer and Roberta Fiandino 4x6km involved in biathlon. Department favored the Germans led by Lena Neuner , to try to prevent the trio will be the golden Olga Zaitseva of Russia and Sweden Helena Jonssen more than French and Norwegian. Possible outsiders representing the eastern Ukraine and Belarus at all. Underway at 20.30.
In the Nordic combined team will be led blue bronze the only individual race up to this point, the springboard from small- Alessandro Pittin that will spur fellow Armin Bauer, and Joseph Lukas Runggaldier Michielli a team that would win the hypothetical gold reserved for the younger team. For the presence of blue seems to be a victory, a placement around eighth place would be an important seal for the movement. A fight for the medal will probably be more important to the United States-overtime in the individual competition, with Austria and Germany. A step behind Finland and Japan appear to be, animated by a strong team bond in this test. Try jumping 19.30, from 23.00 to run on narrow skis.
first Olympic gold medal to be awarded for women's ski cross to do the same with that of men went to Swiss Schmid. Undisputed ruler of specialty is the French Ophelie David, authentic cannibal branding his name on the crystal ball continuously since 2004. The Transalpine, bi-world champion in 2006 and 2007, however, missed the World Championship event in 2008, and ended only in seventh place the 2009 world, demonstrating the difficulty, for samples of the sport, the big events. Ophelie A mark will be the Canadian representatives, all Kelsey Serwa, Asleigh McIvor and Julia Murray, making the home team a real battleship. Qualifying heats at 19.30, from batteries 22.00, the final 23:02. Overnight
also the first two heats of women's bobsled, Olympic edition only crewed by two athletes. The fight for the medals should be closed to the speech driven by German crews Cathleen Martini and Sandra Kiriasis. They will try to spoil the party the crew of Canadian and U.S. Kaillie Humpheries Shauna Rohbock. At the Whistler Sliding Centre, will be ensured by the presence of blue Jessica Gillarduzzi paired with Laura Curio. First run at 2:00, second at 3.10. Good
