I have to say that my opinion differs quite a bit....................If you collide and crash out that often, then the fault generally only lies in one place. A bit like an F1 driver who constantly hits other cars because he overtakes and takes risks where he shouldn't, ruining his own race and someone else's into the bargain. Just my viewpoint.
I've lost sympathy for her now, haven't seen the latest but what's that 6 out of 6 all dq's and crashes, people can be very unlucky multiple times but 6 out of 6 when you are one of the favourites, perhaps it's not all bad luck perhaps there is poor judgement in the mix.
Continually being banned by Planet Swans for Porthcawl and then being reinstated.
Clearly now has a mental block/ breakdown attitude when comes to the Olympics. She's just said she's coming back for next one( Beijing).... Someone needs to tell her No ! She'll end up in the Priory FFS.
I don't think she should have been out there today for the sake of her own health.
Olympics must be a mental issue as she's won three World championship gold medals, ten European gold medals and is the world record holder so she certainly doesn't lack ability.

I think that short track is to confined to be anything other than a general lottery given the lack of room and obvious potential for continual collisions.
Ice racing along the lines of athletics on the large speed skating ice pads is the way to go for me.
I'm not sure how anyone can moan about being knocked over all the time when the sport chosen consists of up to six people racing round almost continual bends on a very tight track.
It's like whining about getting tackled when playing rugby. Get over it.
She certainly keeps banging into people and falling over doesn't she?
Her boyfriend is also the same as her... representing Hungary on Saturday at the men's skeleton race crashed into and took out two Koreans .
Such a lovely girl and I feel so sorry for that after all this training she certainly has the ability but that is something seriously wrong there that needs to be addressed she is 31 years old now I'm not sure if she will get another chance in the next Olympics but a beautiful lady nonetheless . https://www.standard.co.uk/news/world/twitter-reacts-as-elise-christie-crashes-o

I really enjoyed watching the 10k long track guys going at it. 10K in under 13 minutes!
