FIBT World Championships 2012
The FIBT World Championships 2012 took place from 13 to 26 February 2012 at the [Mt. Van Hoevenberg Olympic Bobsled Run|bobsleigh, luge, and Skeleton (sport)|skeleton track] in Lake Placid, New York, for the tenth time. Lake Placid had previously hosted the World Championships in 1949, 1961, 1969, 1973, 1978, 1983, 1997, 2003, and 2009.
Lake Placid was awarded the 2013 championships at the 2009 FIBT Annual Congress meeting in Moscow on 31 May 2009, but the 2013 location was switched to St. Moritz, Switzerland, in December 2010. The FIBT switched the locations to accommodate a shorter trip for athletes and equipment to Sochi, Russia, in 2013 so that athletes will gain practice time on the 2014 Olympic track in Sochi.
