Ukrainian skeleton racer Vladyslav Heraskevych will not be allowed to compete at the 2026 Winter Olympics after the Court of Arbitration for Sport upheld his disqualification for wearing a war tribute helmet.
During practice runs at Milan-Cortina, Heraskevych wore a helmet bearing the images of Ukrainians killed as a result of Russia’s invasion of the country, and insisted he would wear the helmet when the competition began on Thursday morning.
