Who will represent Finland at the next Worlds in Colorado Springs?

Compare to the Juniors who have already finished their qualifications, the Finnish system is different in Seniors:

- The winner of the Nationals goes to Colorado Springs automaticaly
- The second representative team will be selected on the basis of the three competitions: qualifications 1, qualifications 2 and Nationals. The scores will be count together and the team who will have the best score will be selected.

For the moment, scores are very close between the different teams. The battle will be tough.

Winners of second qualifications!!🏅Today we left our hearts out on the ice and managed to create an amazing atmosphere, which put us to the first place in free program and 1st place overall with a total score of 190,92. We enjoyed every second on the ice 💙 Thank you so much to everyone who cheered for us throughout this weekend, it means so much to us! 💙 #marigoldiceunity #skatingfinland #ml2sm2016 #suomi100 #winners 📷: Tero Rauhala
