Christin Senkel

Christin Senkel is a German bobsledder who has competed since 2008. Her best World Cup finish was second in the two-woman event at Winterberg in December 2011.
Senkel also finished seventh in the team event at the FIBT [World Championships 2009] in Lake Placid, New York. Senkel was originally part of Anja Schneiderheinze-Stöckel's team, but after her good performances, she temporarily switched to Claudia Schramm's World Cup team. After achieving the fastest times in a pre-Olympic test in early January 2010, national coach Wolfgang Hoppe assigned her to the German number one, Sandra Kiriasis, for the Olympic Games. Within a relatively short period of time, Senkel was successively the pusher for all five outstanding German bobsleigh pilots at the time.
She and Sandra Kiriasis finished fourth in the two-woman event at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver. Senkel and Cathleen Martini finished seventh at the 2014 Winter Olympics.
