Short Track Speed Skating

Milano

9 events

Controlled chaos on ice. Up to 6 skaters race simultaneously around a tiny 111-meter oval, jockeying for position at speeds over 30 mph. Crashes are frequent. Strategy matters as much as speed — when to pass, when to draft, when to make your move. Photo finishes are routine. The relay events are especially wild, with teammates literally throwing each other into the race. Expect drama, controversy, and stunning upsets.
