  • Platz Sieben Für Alexander Mann Im Viererbob in Whistler
    Pressemitteilung der Sportschule Fürstenfeldbruck-Puch GmbH 28.02.2010 Platz sieben für Alexander Mann im Viererbob in Whistler Erfolgreiches Olympiadebüt eines jungenTeams – André Lange holt Silber Olympia ist der große Traum eines jeden Athleten – für viele Bobfahrer aber wurde die Bahn in Whistler zum Verhängnis. Sechs Stürze in den ersten beiden Läufen sind ein nahezu unglaubliches Ergebnis, das den Bundestrainer der Damen dazu veranlasste, in der ARD nach dem ersten Tag für einen Abbruch des Wettkampfes zu plädieren, denn er sorgte sich um die deutschen Fahrer. „Das Rennen avanciert zur Farce“, sagt er. In der gefährlichen Kurve 13, „Fifty-Fifty“ genannt, stürzten auch erfahrene Weltklassepiloten und Medaillenkandidaten wie der Russe Alexandr Zubkov mit seinem Viererbob. Die Bahn in Whistler verzeihe keine Fehler, hatte Medizinstudent und Coach der Sportschule Fürstenfeldbruck-Puch, Alexander Mann, nach den Trainingsläufen gesagt und damit Recht behalten: bereits ein paar Hundertstel Zeitverlust am Start und kleine Bandenberührungen oder eine nicht hundertprozentig ideale Linie gerade in den Kurven elf bis dreizehn sorgen für einen zu hohen Zeitverlust und entscheiden über die Medaillen. Als das Quartett mit Karl Angerer, Alexander Mann, Andreas Bredau und Gregor Bermbach nach vier Läufen heil im Ziel ankam, jubelten alle und waren zufrieden – sie hatten eine konstante und souveräne Leistung gezeigt, auf einer unkalkulierbaren Bahn und unter nicht ganz idealen personellen Voraussetzungen. Denn im Bob von Karl Angerer (WSV Königssee) sollte eigentlich Alexander Rödiger aus dem Team von André Lange auf Position zwei sitzen, Alexander Mann hätte statt Andreas Bredau auf Position drei anschieben sollen. Doch bei Langes Stammanschieber René Hoppe trat eine alte Muskelverletzung in der Wade erneut auf, so dass Rödiger für das letzte Rennen in der Karriere von André Lange wieder in dessen Bob wechselte und mit ihm die Silbermedaille gewann.

  • PRESS RELEASE – Preview for BMW IBSF World Cup in Lake Placid/USA 13 Feb. 2019 All Eyes on the Race to the Skeleton World
    PRESS RELEASE – Preview for BMW IBSF World Cup in Lake Placid/USA 13 Feb. 2019 All eyes on the race to the Skeleton World Cup – Nikitina and Yun lead the pack Lake Placid (RWH): The race for the two overall skeleton titles in the BMW IBSF World Cup has proven to be extra exciting this 2018/2019 season. While Elena Nikitina of Russia leads the women’s event with just 43 points over defending World Cup title holder Jacqueline Lölling (GER), Sungbin Yun (KOR) has just a single-point lead over Russia’s Alexander Tretiakov in the men’s event. By winning his first race of the season in St. Moritz (SUI) in January, Yun only just edged past Russia’s 2014 Olympic gold medal winner to steal the lead. Both athletes have finished on the podium three times at previous World Cup races in Lake Placid. However, Alexander Tretiakov is the only one of the pair to have actually won a race there, securing gold back in December 2016. So far, four different men and four different women from a total of different six countries have won World Cup skeleton races this season – and Team USA would be delighted to see a seventh nation added to this list when they race in front of a home crowd in Lake Placid. The last skeleton athletes to celebrate a home win at the Mt. Van Hoevenberg Combination Bobsled, Skeleton & Luge Track were Anne O’Shea in December 2016 and her team mate Matthew Antoine in December 2013. The last two women’s skeleton races at this track were won by European Champion Janine Flock (AUT), who declared the track to be one of her favourites on the circuit.
