    And Canada crapped out on 3000m womens' longtrack speedskating.
    At least there are still other women's longtrack events which are apparently the specialty of our skaters.

    Well I wrote that before she got the bronze, more referring to two of them starting well ahead of pace, then losing a ton of steam.

    Lap 159 -- YELLOW FLAG NO. 6: Caution is out for more track issues in Turns 1 and 2 as the hole is back. Michael McDowell gets the free pass for the third consecutive caution and is back on the lead lap.

    5:55 p.m. -- Kevin Harvick says the hole is bigger this time than earlier.
