Czech bobsledders Danilevic & Gomola European champs

The duo of Czech bobsledders Ivo Danilevic and Roman Gomola were crowned European Champions in their event on Saturday, when they beat their closest competitors by one 100th of a second. A third place finish at Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy, one of two results, was enough to push them past the Swiss duo of Ivo Ruegge and Cedric Grande in the overall championship standings. Germany's Lange & Kuske, the title favourites, finished third. Winning the European title is an historic achievement for Czech bobsledding.
