Winter Olympics 2018: Mica McNeill and Mica Moore named in GB team

Crowdfunded athletes Mica McNeill and Mica Moore have been included in a 10-strong Great Britain bobsleigh team for the Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang.

The pair were only able to compete on the World Cup circuit this season after raising more than £30,000 following an overspend by their governing body.

They finished in the top 10 in four of their eight World Cup races.

Welshman Bruce Tasker misses out after suffering a minor stroke on 4 January.

Team GB last won an Olympic medal in bobsleigh at Nagano in 1998, but the four-man team from 2014 will learn whether they are to receive a retrospective Olympic bronze medal from Sochi on or before 31 January.

The British four-man team - led by pilot John Jackson - initially finished fifth at the Sochi Games, but could be upgraded to bronze, as the International Olympic Committee has disqualified the two Russian sleds - who finished first and fourth - after re-examining the doping tests conducted at the time.
