Ukrainian skeleton athlete Vladyslav Heraskevych was disqualified from the Olympic race for wearing a “helmet of remembrance” honouring athletes killed since Russia’s invasion, breaching IOC rules banning political messages in competition. He can remain at the Games after a last-minute intervention by IOC President Kirsty Coventry, while his team plans to appeal the disqualification.
