They are bobsledders, they have chosen a sport that is dangerous no matter where they race, though this one may be a bit faster than the rest, its still part of what they chose to do.
I think if the drivers confidence is shot, then yes he should not go...but my question is one that doesnt question the decision not to race in Vancouver, but deciding to be in a sport that involves speed/danger no matter where they are competing.
If I am part of the Dutch Bobsled federation...this guy is off the team for good. Way better ways for them to direct their resources I would think.
