One run down, three to go across the luge men's and women's doubles events.

Here are the timings for the rest of the sliding fun:

• 16:51 - Men’s doubles run one

Canada's Beattie Podulsky and Kailey Allan, who actually did well to keep their sled upright after a mistake on corner four, bring the first run of the women's doubles to a close.

The top five pairs are separated by less than half a second.

Italy's Andrea Voetter and Marion Oberhofer lead the way in their home games and will be the last pair down the track in run two, which gets under way at 17:53 GMT.

1. Andrea Voetter/Marion Oberhofer (Italy) - 53.102
2. Dajana Eitberger/Magdalena Matschina (Germany) - 53.124 (+0.022)
3. Selina Egle/Lara Kipp (Austria) - 53.193 (+0.091)
4. Marta Robezniece/Kitija (Latvia) - 53.492 (+0.390)
5. Chevonne Forgan/Sophia Kirkby - 53.570 (+0.468)

Oh no! It's not a good first run from Slovakia. They're bouncing from wall to wall at the top of the run.

They finish with a time of 56.227, putting them more than three seconds off the pace. That's surely their medal hopes gone?

That's a good run from German pair Dajana Eitberger and Magdalena Matschina, recovering nicely from an early bump to finish just +0.022 behind the Italians.

Remember, they beat two-time world champions Jessica Degenhardt and Cheyenne Rosenthal in national qualifying to clinch Germany's spot in this event.

Five pairs have completed their first runs in the women's doubles and it's Italy (Andrea Voetter/Marion Oberhofer) who remain at the top of the standings with a time of 53.102.

Oh, there's a bit of a grimace from Selina Egle and Lara Kipp following a mistake late in their run, clipping a wall.

However, the Austrian duo - the defending world champions - are only 0.091 off the pace in second place.

Italy haven't won Olympic gold in any luge event since 2006 when Armin Zoeggler triumphed on home soil.

Could that change today? Andrea Voetter and Marion Oberhofer have just set a new leading time of 53.102 in their first run.

Two down, nine to go.

Over the men's and women's singles, we've seen that this track can throw anything at the athletes - at the top of the track, in the middle and at the bottom.

It is catching sliders out all over the track, so they will have to be consistent and focused on what they need to do from run one.

USA's Chevonne Forgan and Sophia Kirkby make it down the track without incident.

They've set the pace with a time of 53.570.

Right, it's luge time on BBC One! (You can to continue follow the ice hockey on the iPlayer and at the top of this page)

We're starting off with the first run of the women's doubles. USA duo Chevonne Forgan and Sophia Kirkby will get things under way.

• 16:00 GMT - Women’s doubles run one
• 16:51 - Men’s doubles run one
• 17:53 – Women’s doubles run two
• 18:44 – Men’s doubles run two

Germany are the dominant force in women’s singles, with Julia Taubitz winning their eighth consecutive Olympic gold in the event on Tuesday.

But they’re without two-time world champions and reigning European champions Jessica Degenhardt and Cheyenne Rosenthal in Cortina after they were beaten in national qualifying (only one sled is allowed per nation in this event).

Instead, Germany will be represented by Dajana Eitberger and Magdalena Matschina, who won European bronze in January and world bronze last year.

That leaves Austrian pair Selina Egle and Lara Kipp as the favourites to win gold. They won the first ever women’s doubles World Cup race in 2022 and haven’t stopped since – they lead this season’s World Cup standings and have won the past two World Championships.

Also keep an eye on Italian pair Andrea Votter and Marion Oberhofer – the inaugural World Cup champions – and USA’s Chevonne Forgan and Sophia Kirkby.

Doubles luge sees two athletes ride a small sled, lying flat on their backs and moving feet-first down a twisty-turny 1,400m ice track.

The athletes move themselves forward in a seated position by pushing their hands against the ice before lying down one on top of the other in an aerodynamic position.

They use their weight, shoulders, and legs to turn the sled with the aim of getting down the track as fast as possible.

Each pair completes two runs, with the fastest combined time earning the gold medal.

In the second run, the lugers compete in reverse order of the standings, with the event leaders last down the track.

The men's ice hockey tournament has just begun and you can watch game one, Slovakia against defending champions Finland, on BBC One, BBC iPlayer and at the top of this page.

Rebecca (@15:42) - I think I have the answer to your biathlon query.

Your shooting stance is dictated by the event.

In individual events (20km for men and 15km for women), athletes complete five laps and four shooting stages. Their stance at the shooting stages alternates - prone, standing, prone, standing.

In sprint events, you do one prone shooting round and one standing.

In the pursuit events, it's two prone shoots followed by two standing shoots.

In the mass starts, it's prone, prone, standing, standing.

And in the relays, each competitor has a prone and a standing round.

When shooting from a prone position, you have to hit the inner ring of a small target (45mm diameter). When standing, the target is 115mm in diameter.

Eleven pairs will take to the track in the women’s doubles and one of them will make history as the inaugural Winter Olympics luge women’s doubles champions!

Doubles has featured at the Olympics since 1964 but although it was open to either gender, no women ever competed in it.

The women’s event was introduced to the World Championship programme in 2022 and the World Cup schedule in 2022/23 ahead of its Olympic debut in Milan-Cortina.

Coverage on BBC One will be heading over to the Cortina Sliding Centre shortly and if you think singles luge is wild, hold onto your… skinsuits, I guess? It’s doubles time!

It’s the same principle as singles – feet-first down the track at speeds above 80mph with the fastest overall time after two runs winning the gold medal – but has the added fun of two people lying one on top of the other on a single sled.

According to Germany coach Patric Leitner, singles is “like driving a go-kart” and doubles is “like driving a truck or a bus”…

And for the first time in Winter Olympic history, we’ve got a men’s event and a women’s event!

• 16:00 GMT - Women’s doubles run one
• 16:51 - Men’s doubles run one
• 17:53 – Women’s doubles run two
• 18:44 – Men’s doubles run two

Hello Rebecca - it's like you can read our minds. We've just had this conversation in the office about our preferred stance - mine is down on one knee, but I don't know if that's in the rules (I've also never done biathlon in my life so this is all hypothetical).

I'll try and find an answer for you...

And of course, who can resist an evening watching curling?

Bruce Mouat led (or skipped, in curling parlance) GB to the silver medal in 2022, losing to Sweden in the final.

They'll play nine round-robin matches - starting tonight against China - with the top four teams qualifying for the semi-finals.

That match gets under way at 18:05 GMT.
