    Curling – GB women v Switzerland

    Vicky Wright

    Because it’s so noisy in here, it’s hard for the girls to hear each other out there. Rebecca Morrison is shouting as loud as she can, but they still can’t hear over the crowd.

    A really good defensive shot by Rebecca Morrison averts a nightmare outcome, but the Swiss still take two and nudge in front after three ends.

    The women’s big air final will now not start before 21:00 local time (20:00 GMT).

    As well as the snowfall, it’s incredibly windy out there and so obviously it is not safe for athletes to be competing.

    Bobsleigh – women’s monobob (run three)

    The bobsleigh pilots are really struggling on this track.

    We’ve seen some really messy runs with a lot of wall bashing.

    Gasps and groans from the crowd tell you all you need to know.

    Ski jumping – men’s super team

    That’s the end of the first round of the men’s super team.

    Austria, who led the standings after the first set of jumps, held their position with a combined score of 291.2 by their two jumpers.

    They’re followed by Slovenia (280.9), Poland (274.5), Germany (273.3) and Japan (272.3).

    We bid farewell to Estonia, Ukraine, Turkey, China and Romania with only 12 teams progressing to the second round – that starts at 18:50 GMT.

    The women’s big air has been delayed by a further 30 mins – a decision is due at 20:00 local time (19:00 GMT).

    They’ve currently got what are effectively leaf blowers out on the big air, trying to disperse the loose snow.

    Given that it is still snowing heavily, that feels like a pointless task to me.

    Bobsleigh – women’s monobob (run three)

    Jess Anderson
    BBC Sport in Cortina

    I can’t tell if Adele Nicoll was happy or frustrated with that run as she shouted something as she came up the finish straight.

    She was up and out of the sled before it had even got to the top and needed the help of the track workers to get the sled up the last bit of hill before it went sliding the other way.

    Anyway her run of one minute flat is an improvement on her times from the first two heats.

    Mica Moore, who used to compete for Team GB but now represents Jamaica, shakes her head as she comes up a few minutes later after a really messy run.

    Curling – GB women 1-0 Switzerland

    Richard Winton
    BBC Sport Scotland in Cortina

    Rebecca Morrison drifts in her final stone for one. Not what GB would have wanted from this end, but ultimately it was what they needed to deny the Swiss a significent steal. A good pressure shot from the British skip.

    Bobsleigh – women’s monobob (run three)

    Adele Nicoll’s third run comes in at a flat 1:00.00 – how tidy.

    Her overall time is 3:00.83, putting her 2.56 seconds behind leader Laura Nolte. She’s up to 11th.

    Wales’ AdeleNicoll made history on Sunday as the first British woman to race in the Olympicmonobob event and she’s next down the track.

    After run two, she was in 13th place and trailing leader Laura Nolte by 1.71 seconds.

    Nicoll, 29,is a former shot putter, winning three national championships, and was an alternatefor the two-woman bobsleigh in Beijing before switching to the monobob.

    She will alsocompete in the two-woman competition alongside Ashleigh Nelson, with thatevent getting under way on Friday.

    The snow has well and truly set in.

    I was braving the outside world to go and get these photos when they announced over the tannoy the start had been delayed.

    At least I have a warm press centre to dive into. There is a fan shelter but it definitely won’t fit everyone.

    The new sliding events have been good fun, why not have a combined team gold for all the sliding events, where the teams can select the best 2 times from each discipline to see who was the best team?

    Roger Keiron McVeigh

    Hi Roger, they used to have a mixed team event at the World Championship made up of one run each of men’s skeleton, women’s skeleton, two-man bobsleigh, and two-woman bobsleigh.

    That event featured from 2007-2019 and Germany won gold eight times out of 10.

    Here are some pictures from Livigno, where athletes had been warming up for the big air final.

    That snow does look pretty heavy, doesn’t it?

    The start of the women’s final in the big air will definitely be delayed because of a blizzard.

    It was due to start at 18:30 GMT, but it has been postponed. Another update is expected soon as to whether it can go ahead tonight or not.

    Ski jumping – men’s super team

    Each team has had one of their two jumps in the first round of the men’s super team.

    Austria, who were the last to jump, lead the way thanks to Jan Hoerl, who laid down a score of 151.8.

    They’re followed by Slovenia (141.7), Japan, Poland (both 137.4) and Norway (131.5).

    12 of the 17 teams progress from this round.

    Curling – GB women v Switzerland (18:05 GMT)

    Logan Gray
    BBC Sport commentator and former elite curler

    Andy Moss in Herts has asked why Rebecca Morrison throws last and sweeps for Team GB?

    It’s about the strengths of the respective players, Andy. Sophie Jackson is a strong tactician, so is a natural skip. Rebecca is good under the pressure of delivering the final stone and is a strong sweeper.

    Quite a few teams in the field will have non-traditional set ups like this.

  18. Big air final in jeopardy?published at 18:11 GMT

    Katie Falkingham
    BBC Sport in Livigno

    The women’s big air final – featuring GB’s Kirsty Muir – is due to start in about 20 minutes but it has just started snowing like crazy here in Livigno, swirling so much it’s actually quite hard to open your eyes outside.

    I’d say it’s incredibly unlikely this final is going to start on time, if at all.

    Track record after track record so far as we get under way with heat three.

    The two Americans Kaillie Armbruster Humphries and Elana Meyers Taylor flew down this track and it should be a thrilling finale this evening.

    GB’s Adele Nicoll to come.

    Why is LSD crucial in curling?published at 18:04 GMT

    Curling – GB women v Switzerland (18:05 GMT)

    Richard Winton
    BBC Sport Scotland in Cortina

    No, not that LSD…

    In curling terms, we’re taking about Last Stone Draw, which happens before every match in the round-robin stages.

    Logan Gray, one of BBC Sport’s curling commentators, can explain…

    “Two members of the rink play a draw – one clockwise, one anti-clockwise. The team with the smallest aggregate distance to the button wins the hammer, which is the right to throw last in the first end.

    “How important is that? Vital. Bruce Mouat’s rink have won around 85% of the matches in which they’ve won the LSD. It also serves as a tie-breaker at the end at the round-robin stages, so it can be the difference between reaching the semi-finals or not.”

    And, as it happens, GB have won the LSD for this match against Switzerland and will have the hammer. In fact, they’ve got the best LSD score of all eight teams on the ice right now.
