Thank you for translating!
is it just me or does he sound more confident than ever?! Its great to see it,
Regardless of results, i hope he will show us programs that he will be proud of! Good luck Javi
He sounds more determined, I think.
And in spite of the mistakes he's made in his programs this season, he looks more stable somehow - I think his unexpected World title has given him confidence.
I just can't with the GPF IG 
And from Miki's IG it sounds like Javi will be holding an ice show in Madrid on Dec 26

Javi is coming!
This one is an interview with Brian where he says there's something unique and authentic about Javi, that he skates without thinking much and uses his heart, instead (it reminds Brian of how he was as a skater).
And this one's an interview with Javi himself: he talks about probably retiring after 2018 and that he'll have to work after that (why doesn't he do ice shows?), Rafael Nadal is his idol, he's got a motto: "What happens on the ice stays on the ice, my life comes after that" because he tries to keep them both separate. They asked him if he's ever tried to do a pairs routine with Miki, but he says there's no time. His relationship with Yuzu hasn't changed in the slightest since Worlds other than they now compete with the specific goal of beating each other. He thinks he's at the perfect level ATM to compete against him, and he's there to win.
I like hearing him more confident and determined, hopefully this will translate to great routines today!

It's interesting when he talks about his diet, the fact that he eats healthy food but does not obsess over his weight, and rarely weighs himself. Very laid-back, very Javier.

Thanks for the link. The interview also serves as further proof, if any is needed, that Brian's talk about vowing not to be emotionally invested in his skaters is just that, talk. He can be very
proud of his "son" Javier both as a skater and a person.
And speaking of coaches, I didn't know that Javier received some coaching also from Alexei Mshin judging from this rough Google translation in English:

All the best to Javier and the other competitors in the GPF!

Quoting a few posts from the Yuzuru fan thread because I think it is wonderful how Hanyu and Javier support each other. Long live the Cricket Club Brothers!:yes2:
I thought this was a very sweet article so I wanted to share it here: Sara and Sonia, Javier Fernandez' sisters (Sara Hurtado and Sonia Lafuente)
Among other things they said: "We're so proud and happy for everything that's happening to Javi, because he deserves it. And the best thing is that our relationship has never changed. He is still that humble and nice boy, always smiling."
"Javi has opened this country's eyes about the importance of this sport. And to us, as skaters and teammates, he has made us realize that it can be done, that it's possible...That if you have the talent, even if you come from a country without skating tradition and with little resources, you can get there if you really want it and fight for it."

He was soooo good! I always had faith in him & I hope a few people are eating their words (the ones who thought Javi would be a non-factor compared to Chan & Denis this season...come on, he's world champ for a reason!)
