Team France Competes to Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance" & Can-Can | Paris 2024

A little down on qualifying now. The crowd is to lift them into a medal position. This needs to be a good one. You'll recognise the music. They work it well. During the qualifications we saw the scores lower in this second routine. None of those five gymnasts has left anything out on the floor. Maximum effort. Maximum response from the crowd. They can be well pleased with their Olympic campaign. Even a synchronised fist bump. Excellent performance. We did see one little moment where one of the gymnasts had a little huge mistake. Which we'll see in the scores. They're done now. Let's wait for the other seven. I love the start. Brilliant. What's almost as enjoyable as the routine is the crowd's involvement with it. Yes. Just loving it. But everyone was up for it. I think they also played to the judges but they also played to the audience. You can only be moved by the way in which the response performance is thrown from the foot. The best score with the second rotation in qualifying was a 33.5 from Ukraine. So France, they don't drop too much on their 35.75 with the hoop. We see a little bit of trouble there with the ribbon. Hard to tell what sort of effect that has on the overall score. Yes, I agree, if they can just hang in there. We saw some wild variations in scores in the first, from the qualification to final in that first routine. And France a little bit down. Perhaps they can maintain something close to the 32. Small judging delays giving plenty of time for the crowd to enjoy this moment. And a 30.25, they have let a couple of points go. Yes, execution down, a natural fact.
