VICTORIA DOULLIAT, AFP/Getty Images Winter Olympics - Mens bobsleigh World Cup final: A three-man sled that is set to win gold in Sunday's bobsleigh World Cup finale is on course to be the surprise of the Olympics after a wild run that took four crews and four crashes to the finish line. The United States are waiting to claim their first gold medal of these Games, hoping the US-1 team of Lovell, Steven Langton and Steven Fitter will top the qualifying session earlier in the day. The pre-race favourite, Germany's team of Anke Friese, Felix Gottwald and Victor Barreiro, are in second place in the final heat.
