The Olympic Games are an extraordinary event for many sports fans, and the joy is even greater when sports legends meet. At the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, there was exactly such an opportunity in which the former ski racer Felix Neureuther is not only right in the middle of it, but also in a special role.

Neureuther as ARD expert

Felix Neureuther will appear at this year's Olympics as an expert for the ARD. The 40-year-old held the Olympic torch during the rehearsals before the official opening, which was an unforgettable moment for him. This new task enables him to give fans exciting insights into the games and to share his experiences as a former athlete.

in the Stade de France, the venue for the athletics competitions, Neureuther met impressive sports personalities. These include Moritz Fürste, who was hockey in 2008 and 2012, Dirk Nowitzki, NBA champion and flag bearer of the 2008 Olympic Games, as well as Linford Christie, the gold medal winner over 100 meters in the 1992 games.

Neureuther shared a photo with these sports legends on his Instagram account and commented: "What a mood". The feedback from the fans was overwhelmingly positive. Many appreciated the opportunity to see so many stars from different sports and called it a "wonderful" experience. The picture illustrates how the Olympic Games bring old and new sporting icons together, which gives the community a feeling of continuity and togetherness.

An amusing note about the photo was that Neureuther had a smaller stature compared to his tall friends. The television presenter Kai Pflaume gave him the friendly advice to be at the upper level in the future in order to appear larger in photos. This shows that humor and lightness also have their place in the world of sport.

outlook for further exciting insights

Felix Neureuther will be active as ARD expert until the end of the Olympic Games and offer viewers more fascinating insights behind the scenes. After the games, he will return as an expert at the Ski World Cup. This stimulates the interest of the fans, as athletes are intertwined in both summer and winter sports and shows that the passion for sports plays an important role across different disciplines.
