PRESS RELEASE 14 March 2017 Preview for the BMW IBSF World Cup: World Cup finale and Olympic rehearsals in PyeongChang PyeongChang (RWH): The eighth and final BMW IBSF World Cup race of the 2016/2017 season (17 to 19 March 2017) will mark the end of the last winter before the Olympics for IBSF athletes. At the same time, it will be the first chance for bobsleigh and skeleton athletes to battle it out on the new track, making the IBSF race a dress rehearsal for the 2018 Winter Olympics. The Alpensia Sliding Centre is Asia’s second artificial ice track after Nagano (JPN). The Olympic track for the 2022 Winter Games in the Chinese capital of Beijing is currently in the planning stages. The ice track for 2018 is located in the PyeongChang Mountain cluster, just a stone’s throw from the main press centre and in direct proximity to many other Olympic venues for Alpine and Nordic skiing events. The track measures a total length of 1,376 metres and drops a total of 117 metres from start to finish. During the international training period in the run-up to the World Cup race, curve two – a long, relatively flat left-hand curve angled up at the back – has proved to be especially challenging for athletes. “It is a really interesting track, it’s fun – but curve two is tough. We hit the wall today,” summed up Olympic Champion Kaillie Humphries of Canada in a Twitter video after her first day of training. The French bobsleigh pilot Loic Costerg described the Alpensia Sliding Centre as “not too quick but technically very challenging” in a Facebook post.
