I think Matt [Weston] will do the things that he needs to do. Some of the athletes that have been down already have had much better runs.

The conditions have changed. It's now about how the athletes change and adapt to the new conditions on their sleds.

It's going to be a good competition. Three athletes in contention for bronze but everyone has to be perfect, there's no rooms for mistakes.

Seven sliders have completed their fourth run. 17 to go.

Austria's Florian Auer is in the hot seat with a combined time of 3:48.36.

Here's a reminder of the top five after run three.

1. Matt Weston (Great Britain) - 2:47.72
2. Axel Jungk (Germany) - 2:48.11 (+0.39)
3. Christopher Grotheer (Germany) - 2:48.47 (+0.75)
4. Wenhao Chen (China) - 2:48.64 (+0.92)
5. Amedeo Bagnis (Italy) - 2:48.67 (+0.95)

Remember, the sliders go in reverse order of the standings in the final run.

It's colder here so the ice gets slightly harder. This is so enjoyable to watch.

Matt Weston has been working years for this moment. It's a new track, you only have 30 minutes of practice to learn 16 turns and corners.

Japan's Hiroatsu Takahashi gets the fourth and final run up and running.

He finishes with a final time of 3:51.63. For now, that's the time to beat.

One of the key parts of this final is the way Yuto and Scotty built up to this. Scotty had a Netflix documentary and was showing new tricks just weeks before the tournament. Yuto kept his preparation very private and I wonder if the public nature of Scotty's build up added pressure and ultimately handed Yuto the gold.

Team GB are yet to win a medal at Milan-Cortina.

No British man has ever won Olympic skeleton gold.

Thumbs up if you think Matt Weston is going to make history.

I think it's the how long is a piece of string question. If Scotty would've landed that last run, he would've had gold.

He's absolutely devastated. He's got the bronze, he's got the silver, he just needed the gold.

In Cortina, we’re less than five minutes away from the gold medal run in the men’s skeleton.

Great Britain’s Matt Weston is out in front – leading Axel Jungk by +0.39 seconds and reigning Olympic champion Christopher Grotheer by +0.7 seconds – and going for gold.

He’ll be last onto the track in run four.

Great Britain’s Marcus Wyatt (+1.81) is in 10th and hoping to hold onto a top-10 placing.

I think Scotty James should have won that.

Let's just take stock of what we've witnessed. History. That was the best halfpipe final I've seen. The standard was absolutely through the roof.

Scotty James has not put a foot wrong in the build up to these games yet when the time cometh, he couldn't do it.

It's heartbreak for Scotty James. Again, he's run out of pipe. Yuto does indeed take the gold medal.

Oh no, oh no! The final trick, a backside 16, ends with Scotty James hitting the floor.

He's on his knees now, staring at his board. He wanted this gold so badly.

The pressure is almost unbearable here. If anyone can handle it it's this man.

Four years ago Scotty James was leading the Olympic final with one run to go.

He can avenge that loss by stealing gold on the final run tonight.

What has the 31-year-old Australian got left?

That would be like a hit from Mike Tyson in his prime.

These boys have concrete on toast for breakfast.
