The finest pilot of his generation - Bobsleigh, Salt Lake 2002

Four-man bobsleigh requires explosive power from a standing start and the precise steering of a Formula One driver. Thankfully for Andre Lange he had both in abundance. His remarkable run in Olympic competition started at the Utah Olympic Park in a German quartet that never looked like losing their grip on gold.

Andre Lange was amazing in 2002 as the Germany bobsleigh pilot in the 2&4 man, and I remember watching the event commentary by John Morgan: "He hasn't been talking to ANYBODY this week. His only focus is to come in here, win two gold medals, and get the hell out of here." Which he did. One of the greatest Olympic performances ever.
