La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica respecto a las competiciones deportivas con nombres extranjeros, como "luge", que el criterio académico es escribir estas palabras en cursiva, aunque en las informaciones especializadas, a fin de no saturar el texto, es habitual no aplicarles resalte alguno. 3, record 2, Spanish, - luge
