Unexpected injuries reduced NHK rating hopes to ashes.
Injuries to Miura/ Kihara (lumbar injury) and Mai Mihara (right ankle) were both really unfortunate.
However, congratulations to the podium finishers, Ava Marie Ziegler, Lindsay Thorngren and Nina Pinzarrone.
I did not expect Ava Marie to act as "spoiler" for the GPF qualifying, I thought that Mai might fill that role.
As I understand it, the GPF showdown in Shanghai will be between Sakamoto, Hendrickx, Levito, Yoshida, Pinzarrone and Sumiyoshi, 3 from Japan, 2 from Belgium and 1 from USA.
Good luck to all qualifiers.
