Kiriasis and Schneiderheinze (GER) rode a bullet to victory

by yc on February 21st, 2006

The German Women Team (Sandra Kiriasis and Anja Schneiderheinze) zoomed to a Gold in their light blue bullet of a bobsled (Total Time - 3 minutes 49.98 seconds).

American Pilot Shauna Rohbock and Braker Valerie Fleming took America’s first ever medal (Silver) at the event. A Silver that feels more like a Gold indeed.

Italy’s Gerde Weissensteiner and Jennifer Isacco took the Bronze.

There was a scare at the events when the bobsled of Ilse Broeders and Jeannette Pennings of the Netherlands flipped over. The two escaped serious injuries but were out of contention due to the accident.
