GB's Musgrave is now in seventh.

We're on the last circuit ...

Who is going to break out from the pack first?

The French team are over performing and they are both [Hugo Lapalus and Jules Lapierre] capable of podium positions. I am impressed.

It is Norway's Johannes Hosflot Klaebo that is leading this men's 10+10km skiathlon.

They have about 5km left and it remains a tight contest.

France's Hugo Lapalus is 0.4 seconds behind the Norwegian neutral athlete Savelii Korostelev in third.

GB's Andrew Musgrave is up to ninth!

The course hold is over following Cande Moreno's crash and the women's downhill is back under way.

There are eight skiers left to go.

American Breezy Johnson is the current leader, Emma Aicher of Germany is in the silver-medal position, and Italy's Sofia Goggia as it stands would take home the bronze.

If Lindsey couldn't win today then the thing she would want most is that the American flag is at the top of the podium.

Breezy didn't ski the Tofane, she absolutely disarmed it.

This is the moment that Lindsey Vonn - racing with a torn ACL - crashed out of the downhill.

The American three-time Olympic medallist was quickly attended to by medical staff before being airlifted by a helicopter.

If GB's Andrew Musgrave is to medal, he will have to be in close content with Norwegian superstar of cross country skiing - Johannes Hosflot Klaebo.

He won all six gold medals at the last World Championships and could end these Games with the record gold-medal total of any athlete in Winter Olympic history.

He’s already got five and could overtake the record tally of eight.

The Norwegian team has had some illness problems, that’s caused some worry in their country’s media. But it would appear Klaebo is unaffected and is fully fit for today.

You can't take anything away from Breezy Johnson.

She has gone through some horrendous injuries too and come back. She deserves to be on top.

We have to salute, celebrate and give credit to the women who came after Vonn's crash too, to get on to the podium.

With Cande Moreno down, there's another course hold in place.

In 2018, Andrew Musgrave recorded Team GB’s best Olympic result in cross country skiing with a seventh-place finish in the 15km + 15km skiathlon.

Now, aged 35, in his fifth Winter Games, he’ll go again in the skiathlon today in Tesero along with his team mate Joe Davies. The distance may have changed - it’s now 10km per leg - but Musgrave remains as potent as ever if his fitness testing is to anything to go by.

“I’ve been at altitude for three-and-a-half weeks now, but I’ve just been on my own - I haven’t tested myself against any other athlete.

“The older you get, the better you get at the longer events, like the 50km. But, historically, skiathlon I’ve done well in that as well.

“The change from 15km to 10km changes the dynamic of the race, and I’m a little annoyed about it, if I’m honest. But if I’m in good shape I can do as well in a 20km as I could in a 30km.”

“If I come home and I’ve not got a medal it’s not going to be a massive disappointment - as long as I’ve performed well. But I feel like a medal is a realistic possibility, so that is the main goal.”

Cande Moreno has gone down on the fastest part of the course, she is clutching her knee. This is a tough course.

This doesn't look good for Cande Moreno, who has crashed on the steepest part of the course.

The Andorran is holding her knee and being attended to by medical staff.

We're still in the very early stages of the men's 10+10km skiathlon, but Norway are - unsurprisingly - leading the pack.

Mattis Stenshagen, Johannes Hosflot Klaebo and Martin Lowstrom Nyenget are in the medal positions in that order.

GB's Andrew Musgrave is in 19th, with fellow Brit Joe Davies just ahead of him.

Andrew Musgrave will hope to win Great Britain's first ever cross-country medal in the men's 10km + 10km skiathlon.

This will be Musgrave's fifth Olympic Games and he hopes to use his experience at the Tesero Cross-Country Skiing Stadium to overcome Norway's talented line-up.

Breezy Johnson, the current leader, is looking incredibly emotional sitting in the gold-medal chair.

The 30-year-old must have mixed emotions.

She's most likely about to become Olympic champion, but she's just watched her friend and team-mate Lindsey Vonn - a superstar of the sport - suffer a serious crash.

All eyes are on Norway's Johannes Hosflot Klaebo in the men's 10km + 10km skiathlon.

That is because the 29-year-old, labelled the golden man of cross-country skiing, won all six of his races at the 2025 World Championships - a feat which has never been achieved before.

He will be favourite to take gold, but compatriots Erik Valnes, Martin Lowstrom Nyenget and Harald Ostberg Amundsen are also well in the mix.

Norway have won 128 Olympic cross-country skiing medals to date so they will all be eager to add to that impressive tally.

This is how the podium is looking with 16 athletes left to ski...

GOLD - Breezy Johnson (USA) - one minute 36.10 seconds

SILVER - Emma Aicher (Ger) - one minute 36.14 seconds

BRONZE - Sofia Goggia (Ita) - one minute 36.69 seconds

The women's 10km+10km skiathlon took place yesterday, but now it's the men's turn.

It's a cross-country skiing event that sees athletes swap technique midway through the race.

All the athletes start together, and they will do the first 10km of the race using the classic technique - where they glide along pre-made tracks in the snow. Then, for the final 10km, they switch to freestyle.

There is a pit-stop at the halfway point, where athletes can change skis and poles to go from the classic to free technique. The clock keeps running, so time is of the essence!

And at the risk of stating the obvious, the first athlete to cross the finish line wins gold.

Disappointment but Nina Ortlieb is OK. You see her airbag has inflated. All of the racers have to compete with an airbag, it detects when they are falling and inflates to protect their rib cage.

Another crash on the course. Nina Ortlieb was halfway down the piste when she skidded off the surface.

Fortunately, she's unhurt.

In fact, she's furious with herself. The Austrian whacks her pole into the snow before skiing down the rest of the course.
