runningrings Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Unless we are all structural engineers, I don't think we can judge the schedule of the stadium based on pictures. IIRC Athens roof was barely half finished a year out from the 2004 Games. Sochi will be just fine, Putin will make sure of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatsnotmypuppy Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 They purposefully slowed down the stadium construction. The Russians know exactly what stage they need to be at and I am sure alot of the ceremony infrastructure is already built in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob2012 Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Thanks TTMP. Runningrings, using Athens as an example to prove Sochi isn't behind isn't great logic. Their stadium WAS a rush to finish, They never planned to have the roof wheeled into place that soon before the Games!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their stadium WAS a rush to finish, They never planned to have the roof wheeled into place that soon before the Games!! Athens also being the Olympics that said they were going to build a roof over the aquatics venue. Pretty sure the original plans weren't to scrap that entirely just a few months before the Olympics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob2012 Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Classic GB thread that was! Daily webcam pictures of the Athens' stadium roof, a few millimetres different each time. It ran to 60 pages or something in the end. Tense times! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
