Spain and the Winter Games, it made two.

The Spanish delegation at the opening ceremony of the Games in Vancouver, February 12.

Hasu top form on football fields, basketball or Summer Games, Spain lost its case when the winter comes. A new empty-handed in Vancouver, as in Turin in 2006, the Spaniards are wondering about the future of winter sports in a country that has yet a good ski area. "The performance was gray, there was no improvement over Turin"Has allowed the Secretary of State for Sport, Jaime Lissavetzky, while the small delegation (17 members) has brought a medal and has hardly shone.
"The future is black" for snow sports in Spain, added during the weekend sports daily Marca, showing little optimism for the future. The Spanish performance in Vancouver was the image of the skier Maria Jose Rienda, hampered by injuries the past two years and has known a day without giant slalom for his fifth and last Olympic go (38th).
"Spain has 40 ski resorts and 2 ½ million practitioners"But does not believe in its potential, according to the president of the Federation Winter Sports Eduardo RoldanWhich suggests a lack of financial resources and inadequate preparation. This situation is worrying in Barcelona and Zaragoza are candidates to host the Winter Games 2022. "This is something that can play, but this is not conclusive. Brazil has not had great results in Beijing (in 2008) but Rio has received the 2016 Games", Said Mr Lissavetzky, is seeking reassurance.
