At 18:30, when the dawn will be accomplished by just a couple of hours on the white Whistler, scene of the downhill of the women's super-combined: 35 athletes entered in the starting list, minus those that actually take off. DNS stands for sure will add to the bib 21 Anja Paerson: Aare the skier was in fact imposed a round off after the disastrous fall in the downhill yesterday as he launched into silver, probably meet again in the super-G. A fall, that of Swedish, which we hope will be responsible for the repent that jump right on track, too difficult for the racers, too Combinatie often-dangerous for the category of racers improvised. In-rush that will materialize in the slalom 21:30-once again encouraged the American Lindsey Vonn, pointing to a immediate. The absence of the free Paerson Vonn of a true antagonist. Maira Riesch seems too late in the rapid test, but between the posts has a degree in American close. The Mancuso is found to be verified in the slalom test, while Maze, Zettel and Zahrobska-in order of preference, are likely to arise at the gate of the second heat with a gap too wide to be bridged. Fenninger, Kirchgasser Georgl and mistakes of others will need to be able to aspire to the steps of the podium. Blue represented by Daniela Merighetti and Johann Schnarf, the latter hopes to be top 10.
In the night, from 2.00, the Pacific Coliseum, which yesterday saw the short-track bronze dyed blue-host one of the most anticipated events of the entire Olympic program: the program of free skating for men. Great expectations for the Tsar Plushenko, who led after the short program, but with a smaller margin than other occasions. And so the gold rush could open chinks in the U.S. and Japanese Takahashi Lysacek. Maybe too late for the six points of Stephane Lambiel, but we are sure that the Swiss will fall on the ice of his immense talents bold expression. To the colors blue track-Samuel Contexts that will try to recover from the mistakes of the short-and Paolo Bacchini. In biathlon
other two titles up for grabs. Among the women's 15km gold award. In the race where winner is not wrong, the usual favorites list: Helena Jonsson Madgalena Neuner and all, but Olga Zaitseva and Anastazia Kuzmina surprising that-so far-has always combined a certain precision shooting at the speed of skiing. A Michela Ponza, Katja Haller and Karjn Oberhofer Christa Perathoner will be added this time. In the men's race, 20 km on the paper indicates the usual head-to-head and Bjoerndale Svenssen, perhaps too vague in previous appearances. If I'm wrong this time too-much-may take advantage of the Austrians and Saumann Landertinger in German Greis. Debut for the Valle d'Aosta Rene Laurent Vuillermoz, with him the usual Christian de Lorenzi, Lukas Hofer, Markus Windisch. Women at 19.20 and men at 22.20.
Olympic Oval could be transformed into a hellish pit for the "race", one that will see the underdogs prerogative of local darling Christine Nesbitt. To prevent wave O'er the maple leaf flag higher than the other, we test the neederlandese Annette Gerritsen and German Angermueller. Outsider role for Japan and China's Wang Kodaira, bronze in the middle distance, in addition to another owner Kristina Groves. Chiara Simionato on track, working in the fourth of eighteen batteries. Program at the start from 22.00. On
half pipe today at Cypress Mountain will touch women and ensure acrobatics show. Favorite guided the usual U.S. dall'avvenente Hannah Teter, Olympic champion in office that he shared the pages of Sports Illustrated with Lindsey Vonn. To confirm the medal won in the snow Piedmont also will try Gretchen Bleiler. Among the Chinese who have tamed the FIS Cup circuit, the only one with numbers comparable to the U.S. it seems the young Chinese Xuetong Cai, 17 years to complete and so fresh to download on the table. Final at 3.00.
Last words for the start of the program skeleton: the first two days of competition will give the first of two heats and the women's race, and the men's race. Among the girls ended verdict in favor of Melissa Hollingsworth who dominated all six tests in recent days. Only able to cope with it seems to be the British Amy Williams, who will try to get the most from the boost phase, particularly where it excels. In the men's race could still be with Canada Jon Montgomery of evidence he has tamed "only" five, try to bother him compatriot Jeff Pain and Latvian Dukurs Martin. For Italy and Nicholas Costanza Zanoletti Drocco only motivated by the Olympic spirit. Good
