    I’ve really enjoyed it

    Recorded everything that’s available on the BBC, then watched at various speeds to get to the heart of the competition

    I’m currently in the land of Taff and I acknowledge that if I lived here I’d watch a lot of TV too.

    To be fair, there is a winter storm so perhaps I’m not seeing her at her best.

    The less visibility the better in some areas. Not a country of sweeping panoramas

    Crucial, you are just flat out wrong here.

    So has Valieva been tested again since the failure result?

    Or would she only be tested again if she medalled....

    She has already medaled since the test that was positive

    @crucial so that must result in a test then? Hopefully not mixing her meds with her grandpa's again.

    I haven't tried to understand the detail but it doesn't matter what the Olympic test results are too much. The question is whether she should be competing at all after testing positive pre-Olympics I think.

    My understanding is Valieva got let off because she was under 16.

    Have no great issue that a child be let off. She's not capable of standing up against the adults, and system foisting the drugs upon her.

    Shows how weak the decision was not to ban the country entirely.

    Totally disagree. It's not about her being let off. It's about the system she is part of being let off

    No, I think we agree

    Nico wins Gold!

    First run was enough to do it.

    Superb performance. Looked like the wind picked up heavily after the first run making it a nightmare for everyone to even get close to that first round benchmark set by Nico.

    28th place? Just quit FFS.
