Hoffman & Elek had a bad collission with the Japanese dancers during warmup. The story is on the Eurosport site at
http://www.eurosport.com/figureskating/world-championships/2006/sport_sto856145.shtml
The Hungarians were due to skate first in their group, so they asked officials if they could later but were told they couldn't.
I saw this on Eurosport, Nora looked very shaken and upset. They did well to get through the programme but she was obviously in pain.
I'd like to know what other forum members thought of this? Should the referee have allowed Hoffman and Elek to skate later? Does anyone know what the rules are?
I think Tonya Harding was allowed to skate later at the 94 Olympics when her boot lace snapped.
