    He moves back above Austria's Jonas Mueller, who is second with 1:45.988.

    Ski jumping - women's normal hill

    We're almost ready to go in tonight's session of ski jumping.

    50 athletes will compete in the first round of the women's normal hill, with 30 going through to the final round later tonight - that's where the medal is won.

    No Brits in this one, or indeed any of the ski jumping events, I'm afraid.

    I snapped this (absolutely terrible) photo of the big air on my way into the snow park tonight.

    Until you see it in the flesh, it's impossible to comprehend how big a structure it is.

    Arriving into Livigno on Sunday night, we turned a corner and suddenly there it was, lighting up the night's sky. WOAH.

    The chief of the British Olympic Association (BOA), Dame Katherine Grainger, says Team GB should not be called a "disappointment" if they do not attain their target of a record medal haul - but the "potential is very real" to win a historic number.

    Britain's best medal haul from a Winter Games is five - at Sochi 2014 and Pyeongchang 2018 - but UK Sport says up to eight medals could be won at Milan-Cortina.

    Grainger, herself an Olympic gold medal winner, says targets have been set high for a reason - and the BOA would have to hold themselves to account if they are not reached.

    "I would never want to call the team a disappointment in respect of results," she told me this morning at a press briefing

    "We know the potential is to attain a record number of medals, and if that potential is not achieved then we have a responsibility across all of us to understand where that went wrong.

    "There rightly will be questions if we do not achieve that. But I would never label any team a disappointment.”

    The men's singles event in luge is underway, with German veteran Felix Loch bidding to become the oldest Olympic champion in the event, having taken the record for the youngest winner in Vancouver 2010.

    The 36-year-old, who also triumphed in this event in 2014, completed his first run in 53.418 seconds, placing him eighth of the first 10 athletes, with 25 in the field overall.

    We'll have two runs in this event today, with two more following tomorrow - the lowest aggregate time wins.

    No messing around, it's straight to the medal ceremony and Francesca Lollobrigida, unsurprisingly, can't keep the smile off her face as the gold medal is hung around her neck.

    The Italian national anthem now rings out, the hosts will hope this is the first of many times it is heard over the next couple of weeks.

    Francesca Lollobrigida was motivated. The Italians have been here and inspiring. It is amazing to see the Olympic record. There were a lot of questions over the quality of the ice.

    There's a lovely moment as Francesca Lollobrigida, wrapped in an Italian flag, is reunited with her young son after clinching gold.

    That comes after the slightly comical image of, I assume, a Games volunteer running along the gangway in the stands, carrying Lollobrigida's son with a look of panic on her face, thinking she might not get the child to his mother in time.

    All this was happening while Joy Beune was still had another lap to go!

    Francesca Lollobrigida is the Olympic champion!

    Netherlands' Joy Beune pushed hard but she can't overhaul the Italian. In fact, having pushed so hard to try and beat that Olympic record time, she runs out of steam and drops out the medals altogether!

    Italy have their first gold of the Games.

    Silver goes to Ragne Wiklund of Norway and Canada's Valerie Maltais holds on to take bronze.

    The Italians are still smiling in Milan as European champion Ragne Wiklund of Norway, can't maintain her early pace and comes up short.

    She goes into the silver medal spot with Francesca Lollobrigida now guaranteed a medal.

    Disappointment for Netherlands' Marijke Grownewoud, who comes in sixth.

    Another Dutchwoman Joy Beune - the favourite - is up in the final pair...

    Italy's Francesca Lollobrigida has stormed into the lead - and in a new Olympic record time!

    Brilliant from Lollobrigida to take the gold medal spot, a couple of seconds ahead of Canada's Valerie Maltais, who is now second.

    Four skaters to go and they will really have to go some to overhaul the Italian now...

    We have a new leader in the speed skating!

    Brilliant stuff from Nadezhda Morozova. The Kazakhstan athlete was ahead of the leader Sandrine Tas' time all the way but began to tire in the final laps.

    She digs in, though, and crosses the line a mere 0.06 seconds than the Belgian. Another five metres and she'd have been in the silver medal position rather than gold.

    Six more skaters to go...
