Many skaters will be participating for the Netherlands at the Olympic Games in Milan next month. But the Dutch will also take action on the bobsleigh track. Dave Wesselink and Jelen Franjic have qualified in the two-person bobsled.

For a long time it didn’t seem like the two would go to the Olympics. The Dutch did not perform well all season. That’s why they wanted to try a race in a borrowed bobsled. With success. For the first time she finished in the top 10. And that was necessary for qualification.
This video is a summary of the Dutch match.
