YEAHHHHH that's just left one more Russian team. If they go clean, there will be 4 teams w 70+ score fighting for 3 podium spots!! Going to be more exciting than the men competition.
We are definitely getting a lot of fine competition today. Perhaps the extra time for rest, practice, and polishing at the end of the season accounts for it. Unfortunately, that was caused by a tragedy, but the skating level is incredibly high. Perhaps it is due to the special higher quality ice? I don't know. I just know that we're getting a treat.
Savchenko and Szolkowy's program didn't come alive until the end, after the footwork sequence. And even that last part of the program where it felt like they were actually performing contained their weakest element: the side-by-side spin. I'd have put them 3rd.
Berton/Hotarek were picking little pieces of something up off the ice. I was wondering if they didn't get them all, and that's why John and just now Alexander fell.
