Bobsleigher Ivo de Bruin failed to qualify for the last run of the two-man bobs at the Olympic Games in Beijing. De Uithoornaar can be found in 23rd place after three descents. Only the top twenty may make the fourth and final run.
The 35-year-old De Bruin, who forms a duo with Jelen Franjic, ends up in the rear with the two-man bob. However, the Olympics are not yet ready for De Bruin, because he is also participating in the four-man bob. That tournament starts on Saturday, February 19 with the first two runs and ends on Sunday, February 20, the final day of the Games, with the last two runs.
