French Four‑Man Bobsleigh Falls at Start, Canada Next

In the men's four‑man bobsleigh event on Day 15, the French sled, known for its silver‑grade performance, hit a snag when a rider’s foot got stuck at the start, jeopardising their run. Canada is next in line, but they are unlikely to surpass the French.

During the 2026 Winter Olympics, the men's four‑man bobsleigh event saw the French team, famed for its silver‑grade sled, encounter a start‑line mishap when a rider’s foot became stuck, threatening their competitive edge. The Canadian squad is slated to race next, but analysts say they will struggle to outpace the French. Meanwhile, behind the scenes, a technician is carefully waxing a sled in the workshop, preparing for the next run. Live scores, schedules and results are available on the official Olympic website.
