For Heerenveen: We can have events indoors with 500+ people, but then they all have to provide a negative test. Unless there are seating places, then there is no test required. Heerenveen has 50% standing and 50% seating so they are trying to find a way to make it work.

Kuzhin & Toloknov facetimeing eachother in the hospital: https://www.instagram.com/stories/nikita.toloknov/2774368225835453009/ Both boys in good spirits it seems!

Kuzhin posted a video on social media today talking from his hospital bed and thanking all the people for the nice wishes. Great to see! https://www.instagram.com/stories/huzhin___ivan9/2774060907933603365/

For sure the blood on the ice is not something we see very often (twice last weekend).

Pretty normal here in Togliatti. They can have maximum 50% but that’s no problem haha.

300 meters. No semis

In Moscow now

Seems that Zorn also had issues and could only pick-up his visa today. He is on a plane to Russia now. His equipment will be driving to Togliatti by other riders. So looks like an issue with Austrian embassy. Iwema had no issues and collected his visa last friday at the embassy in The Hague. Hutla has already arrived in Togliatti. Weber is practising in Kamensk today, and Mayerbuchler will fly to Russia and rent a local bike. The Swedes & Finns are on their way.

Simon is out for Togliatti. He can't get visa in time.
