In skeleton, the European Cup is the third level competition series after the World Cup and the Intercontinental Cup.
Another skeleton competition for men and women is scheduled for Friday, when men’s doubles and women’s monobob will start in the afternoon. On the other hand, men’s doubles will race again on Saturday and the bobsleigh doubles crews will also compete.
Latvia will be represented in bobsleigh by Dāvis Kaufmanis and 18-year-old Renārs Grantiņš, who has only competed at the youth level so far, including taking 8th place at the Youth Olympic Games in St. Moritz in 2020.
