French ice dancers Gabriella Papadakis and Guillaume Cizeron broke their own world record scores in the last major competition before the Olympics.
Papadakis and Cizeron totaled 203.16 points with 121.87 in Saturday’s free dance, both new bests, at the European Championships in Moscow on Saturday. Full results are here.
The French couple go into the Olympics as favorites over Canadians Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir, who won all three of their head-to-heads last season.
But the French finally overcame the 2010 Olympic champions Virtue and Moir at December’s Grand Prix Final.
