Results and highlights of the Olympic Games Canoe Slalom C1 | Relief

🇫🇷 N. Gestin – 91.36! What a French concert! He won the gold medal by more than five seconds over the English rower.

🇪🇸 MIQUEL TRAVE – The Spaniard closed the score at 97.92, which leaves him with no chance of a medal. He clipped Gate 15 and then lost another two seconds turning to Gate 17.

🇩🇪 S. Tasiadis – Downhill in 97.27, which leaves him with many opportunities to win a medal. He ran away at the eighth gate, losing almost two seconds… It’s Mikel Trave’s turn!

🇬🇧 E. Burgess – 96.84! If he hadn’t left at gate 17… the Englishman could have closed the time for the fight for gold. At the moment, he is first and has a good chance to fight for a medal.

🇸🇰 B. Savsek – 50 seconds penalty for touching the third door! The Tokyo Olympic champion with 9 world medals closed with a disappointing result of 144.93. He came first by a large margin…

🇮🇪 L. Djegou – A great fall for the Irishman… who fouled in the last gate! Due to a two-second penalty, he loses temporary first place with a score of 98.52.

🇭🇷 M. Matija – Horvat temporarily closes third place with a result of 98.35. He skidded at gate 14, losing a lot of time. In this section, the opportunity to get closer to Benus slipped away. For now, the Slovak remains the leader, followed by the Czech.

🇦🇺T. Carter – The Australian closes at 100.73, missing the touchdown at gate 15. The second part of the Parisian course becomes very difficult.

🇸🇳 B. Yves – A great run for the Senegalese rower. The result of 95.78 marked the first time of the fight for medals. However, for missing a gate you get a 50-second penalty!

🇨🇿 R. Lukas – Vice-champion of Tokyo 2020 also made a serious forced error in gate 3, closing at 98.09. One second behind the Slovak paleteist.

🇸🇰 M. Benus – 96.7 mark of the vice-champion of Rio-2016. However, it seems that he will not be able to fight for medals with this time.

🇵🇱 G. Hedwig – It’s hard for him to get into the medal fight, finishing the descent at 105.81. He suffered in the third gate, losing a lot of time. He also had two penalties

The order of performances in the final will be the reverse of the final classification. Therefore, Hedvig (Polnia) will start first, then Benus (Slovakia) and then Trave and Gestin.
