Beijing Winter Olympics LATAM Teams<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The\u00a0Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>are already underway; where the best athletes in the world in these beautiful disciplines gathered to prove their worth. Of course, to leave the name of their countries as high as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main mission of the Latin American <\/strong>countries in these Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics <\/strong>is, without a doubt, to win a medal, be it gold, silver, or bronze. It is an extremely complex mission; because the culture of winter sports in Latinoamerica is not as extensive as in Europa<\/strong>, Asia, <\/strong>and the United States<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, we trust that the claw of our Latin blood comes out, and we can tell the world that; although we are not a power in these sports, we will always be present to give our best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So far in the Olympics<\/strong>, we have a domain of the favorite teams to win medals in the different disciplines; next, we will see how the TOP 10 <\/strong>of the Olympic<\/strong> medal table is at the moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although throughout the history of the Winter Olympics, Latin American<\/strong> countries have not had outstanding participation in the medal table. At least, we can point out that all the athletes arrive with excellent preparation; willing to leave the name of each of the countries they represent at the top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Participation of Latin American athletes<\/strong> by country at the start of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

– Argentina<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Until now, Argentina <\/strong>has counted on the participation of Veronica Maria Ravenna <\/strong>in the Luge<\/strong> discipline; wherein her first presentation on February 3, she finished in position #14 with a time of 1:00:979.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the first test, Ravenna<\/strong> tried again and was unable to improve her time and finished #15 with a time of 1:01:374. In heat 3, Ravenna<\/strong> wanted to try her luck again. However, despite improving her first two records, she couldn’t get beyond #13.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, in heat 5, Veronica<\/strong> managed to have a personal best result in time, with 1:00:504; but she finished in the #23 position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The athlete Francesca Baruzzi Farriol <\/strong>made her debut on February 5th in the Alpine Olympic Skiing<\/strong>. Then, after two attempts, she finished in the #29 position with times of 1:02:43 and 1:01:57.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While on the part of the male representation, Franco del Farra <\/strong>in the Olympic Cross-Country Sk<\/strong>i finished the race 1 lap behind the leader of the competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Bolivia<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Bolivia<\/strong> has only had the participation of Simon Breitfuss Kammerlander<\/strong>, who after 3 rounds of training in the alpine Olympic Ski discipline<\/strong>, obtained his best result in the third and last round of training. As a result, he ranked #47 and finished with a time of 1:47.75, a total of 4.03 from the first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the official competition for\u00a0Olympic Alpine Skiing medals<\/strong>,\u00a0Simon<\/strong>\u00a0managed to finish #34 in the standings, with a time of 1:48.26, 5.57 seconds slower than the gold medal winner, the\u00a0Swiss Beat FEUZ<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Brazil<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The first presentation of Brazil<\/strong> in these Olympic Winter Games<\/strong> has been through Manex Silva<\/strong> in the discipline of Cross-Country Olympic Skiing<\/strong>, where, in the competition for medals, he could not have a good race and finished almost in the last position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, the athlete Nicole Rocha Silveira<\/strong> has participated twice in training in the Olympic Skeleton<\/strong> discipline, in series 1 she finished in fourth place in the classification, with a time of 1:02.47. While in heat 2, she dropped to sixth in the standings, with a time of 1:02.81, just 0.63 seconds ahead of leader Dan Zhao of China<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Chile<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Chile<\/strong>, for its part, has Henrik von Appen<\/strong>, in the discipline of Alpine Olympic Skiing<\/strong>, who began his presentation on February 3 in the first round of training, where he managed to finish in position #30 with a time of 1: 46.04. The second practice for Henrik<\/strong> did not go as well as he expected; as he finished in the #44 position slightly worsening his first time, 1:46.62.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, in the event for the medals, Henrik <\/strong>managed to sign up for #32, with a time of 1:47.69, 5 seconds behind the winner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the women’s category, Emilia Aramburo <\/strong>in the discipline of Alpine Olympic Skiing<\/strong> managed to finish in position #42, after two rounds of times of 1:07.71 and 1:08.61.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Ecuador<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Ecuador <\/strong>has\u00a0Sarah Escobar\u00a0<\/strong>in the discipline of\u00a0Alpine Olympic Skiing<\/strong>, who competed with the\u00a0Bolivian<\/strong>\u00a0Aramburo<\/strong>; but did not have the same luck and did not manage to finish the competition on Monday, February 07, 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Mexico<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

For its part, Mexico<\/strong> also had its female representative in the Olympic Alpine Skiing<\/strong>, the veteran Sarah Schleper<\/strong>, who finished in position #37 in the classification, with times of 1:06.42 and 1:05.53, with a total of 2: 11.95 to 16.26 seconds from Sara Hector<\/strong>, from Sweden<\/strong>, who was the winner of this competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Peru<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Like Mexico, Ecuador and Chile, Peru<\/strong> also had its female representative in the Alpine<\/strong> Olympic Ski discipline<\/strong>, Ornella Oettl Reyes<\/strong>. Ornella<\/strong> finished in position #46 in the classification, with times of 1:12.52 and 1:11.53, with a total of 2:24.05, 28.36 seconds behind the Swedish.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Puerto Rico<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The last Latin American team that has participated in these Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics<\/strong> has been Puerto Rico<\/strong>; through its athlete Kellie Delka<\/strong> in the Olympic Skeleton<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the first practice carried out, that is, in series 1, Kellie<\/strong> finished in the last position of the table. Position #24 with a time of 1:04.39, 2.05 seconds more than the leader of the competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In series 2, the Puerto Rican<\/strong> improved her participation and therefore improved her place in the classification, since she ranked #21 with a time of 1:04.42.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we have been able to observe, the performance of Latin American<\/strong> athletes in these Winter Olympic Games<\/strong> has not been the best, although there are still several competitions to be played and other athletes are waiting for their moment to show their best version, we believe that it is difficult that Latin America<\/strong> can bring a medal from these Olympics<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the coming days, different Latin American<\/strong> athletes will continue to search for their best version to try to bring a medal, not only for their country but for the region, since we are all supporting them, regardless of their flag.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
