Lochner completes Olympic bobsleigh double with four-man gold

Johannes Lochner completed an Olympic bobsleigh double by taking four-man gold in a German one-two on Sunday in which his team-member Thorsten Margis claimed a Games record fifth career gold in the sport. Lochner won the two-man event with Georg Fleischhauer earlier in the week and they then teamed up with Fleischhauer, Margis and Jörn Wenzel to dominate the four-man event as well, leading from the first run onwards.
