Back to the luge and oh no, a huge mistake from Poland's Mateusz Sochowicz who starts his push off but immediately swerves into a wall and looses all his momentum!

After four teams, Ukraine lead with a time of 3:46:17.

It was a fantastic peformance by the boys, they came out against the Olmypic champions and put up a strong performance agaisnt them. They were phenomenal from the first shot.

They want to get revenge - always have a close match against Sweden and they are one of the best teams in the world. To come out with that much authority is huge for them.

[Bruce Mouat] was absolutely perfect. He was shooting at 90% going in to the last end. To have that performance on the back of finishing fourth last week is really important to build his confidence.

We'll have some curling to bring you in little bit as Team GB's women take to the ice against China.

Earlier today the men were ruthless in a 6-3 victory over Sweden.

Luge is all about finding your rhythm and letting the sled do all the work.

The women's halfpipe final starts at 18:30 GMT and we are giving you the opportunity to send us your questions for our commentators Ed Leigh and Tim Warwood.

You might have questions around how it works, how the judges score, or simply names of tricks - but now is the time to ask!

They'll answer some of them on BBC Two when the event gets under way.

ZOOOOOM! And just like that Romania finish with a time of three minutes and 49 seconds.

We'll come back every now and again to update you on the luge, but remember if you're in the UK you can watch it all live.

Wow, what a great recovery from the men's doubles Romanian team who look like they're about to wipeout as they skid against a wall but somehow recover to finish.

It'll cost them precious seconds though.

Here we go then. Embrace the chaos of the mixed luge relay on BBC Red Button and at the top of this page.

Romania are up first with favourites and defending champions Germany the ninth and last team to start.

Germany.

Only twice this century have Germany failed to win the team relay world title.

And they remain the only nation to have won the Olympic team relay title since its introduction in 2014.

Austria are the last team other than Germany to win a world title. Latvia took bronze in Beijing four years ago and could cause an upset.

After this morning’s news regarding Vladyslav Heraskevych it will be interesting to see whether the Ukrainian team choose to make any statement of their own.

They are due to run fourth and don’t have any further competitors in any of the sliding events.

So I guess it would not be possible to punish any kind of statement they wish to make? Let’s see.

Jess Anderson

This event was an absolute HIT at the last Games and this year looks no different with the crowds packed in and the tunes pumping at Cortina sliding centre.

It’s a really exciting event which essentially includes a team made up of women’s singles, women’s doubles, men’s singles and men’s doubles sliders who hurtle down the track before hitting a button at the bottom to signal to their team-mate at the top of the hill to set off.

Should be a really exciting watch.

The luge team relay at 17:30 GMT on the Red Button you say? Shall we find out some more about it?

Here are some of tonight's TV highlights:

BBC Two

Lollobrigida was filming herself on a mobile as she performed her victory lap.

One to show her son when he's older.

That was edge of the seat stuff. They say it's a sport of small margins and they're not kidding.

Imagine winning - or losing - a gold medal by one tenth of a second ...

Wilf O’Reilly
Former British short track speed skater on BBC iPlayer

I don't think Francesca Lollobrigida will ever forget that final lap and how deep she actually went.

She was swinging for all she's got. I feel that was what made that one tenth of a second difference.

Superb bit of skating.

What a noise! This venue might come down, the temporary stands are rocking.

Francesca Lollobrigida, a 35-year-old mother, is a double Olympic champion.
