The International Olympic Committee is still not impressed with Italy’s determination to spend about $90 million rebuilding a historic bobsled track for the 2026 Winter Games. The IOC’s latest statement Wednesday on the public rift came one day after local organizers of the Milan-Cortina d’Ampezzo Olympics moved ahead with a plan to revive a century-old sliding track in the Dolomites ski resort. Aiming to avoid construction costs and potential white elephant venues, the IOC wants the Winter Games opening in just two years’ time to use an existing track — with two nearby options in St. Moritz, Switzerland and Igls, Austria.
