Germany win four-man bobsleigh
Pyeongchang : Germany cruised to victory in the Winter Olympic four-man bobsleigh while there was a tie for the silver medal.
The German sled, piloted by Francesco Friedrich, won by 0.53 seconds while South Korea and the second German crew shared second.
The gold for Friedrich follows his win in the two-man event, making him only the second man to win in both disciplines in the past 30 years.
Brad Hall’s sled finished 2.41secs off the lead while the team piloted by Lamin Deen was 0.03secs further back. It follows a difficult year for British Bobsleigh after BBC Sport revealed in June that GB athletes had written to the governing body to complain of “bullying, racism, sexism and discrimination.”
