@DobreI guess the battle between W/P and C/L for bronze was interesting and it was nice to see W/P end their season on a high note and also sad to see C/L not medal at their home country.
Yes, for me the battle for the bronze was the most interesting part of the competition. I like both W&P and C&L, but I was rooting for C&L in Italy. Both teams skated well, though, and I am glad that Cappellini & Lanotte had that experience at the end of their competitive career.
*Provided it is the end of their competitive career. They look to have happily moved on to me, though I don't think they ever officially announced a retirement & I'm always a bit wary about assuming athletes are done when they come from small countries like Italy.
Of course Worlds did have the hot mess of a battle with Hawayek & Baker splatting and Kaliszek & Spodyriev getting hammered by Judy and Soucisse & Firus dropping down to reality in a deep international field, but everyone must start somewhere.
