The mixed team parallel event at the Olympics

The Alpine mixed team event failed to get me excited and grab my full attention. It is a weak race and this time it was even more confusing as usual as one one course (the blue one) was grossly faster than the other.

The timing adjustment isn’t easily understood either by the spectator, and in the end, no one who isn’t close to ski racing really understand what’s going on, can stay focused and interested on the seemingly unequal courses. 

Unless it can be made more selective (what happened to the jumps?) it should be dropped from the games. Obviously it’s a relatively easy opportunity for extra-medal to some athletes, but if the event can’t stand on its own two feet it should be taken way, as I have said before…
