FIBT World Championships 1960

The FIBT World Championships 1960 took place in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy for the fifth time. The Italian city had hosted the event previously in 1937 (Two-man), 1939 (Four-man), 1950, and 1954. This was an extraordinary event because bobsleigh was not included in the program at the 1960 Winter Olympics in Squaw Valley, California.

gollark: It annoys me that it was even possible to get printer/scanner manufacturers to implement the EURion thing in the first place.

gollark: Printers SHOULD NOT be trusted.

gollark: If anyone else ever notices, this is quite likely.
