It is correct that no German 49er made the internal criteria, but why should they participate in a last chance regatta with only relevance Olympic quota with three (!!!) boats and finish on places 1,4 and 5 and then decline the quota.
The same happened to Brazil, with their internal criteria. One journalist said that in order to have bigger storage room, the Brazilian sailing federation decided to forget their own rules and take all boats.
I still don't get how Austria and Switzerland can be a Developing Nation but Perú can't. That doesn't make any sense to me.
The developing nation is specific to countries that did not participated in that class in the last two editions. I agree with you that is a bit odd - at least in name. This is the full list
I like the idea, but perhaps should be give to countries without representation AT ALL?
For me he should have gotten a better QO. The Italians were 1 point better. Hong Kong is not an emerging country because it has obtained 2 other qualifications. This federation is ridiculous because it can`t establish clear qualification rules. They are turning it into one big circus with some quotas for continents, some specially treated nations, etc. It's just strange that Italy is always harmed: Chamizo, sailing, rowing, etc.
Well, they have a clear qualification rules, although one can oppose to it...
I understood now.
First of all, Australia rejected its quota on the Oceania championhsips.
Then the quotas went to the Developing Nations Program, not the Emerging Nations Program....
They weren't so sure so I will explain their statement. Even I did not find any info that there will be quotas for ENP (at least according to wiki).
Their counting and explanation: ENP are and speaking of nations that qualified for the medal race. Because won't be worse than 3rd, will get the direct quota. First ENP goes to :JPN, second to . As they also mentioned is not on the ENP list. They did their counting like this but they were not so sure. And also according to their words, this has been confirmed around 7pm.
MEN'S: + ENP. There's another quota up for grabs (African reallocation) we don't know for sure who it goes to. If its ENP as I think, goes to , if not, it goes to .
WOMEN'S: + ENP. There's another quota up for grabs (African reallocation) that goes to either way
Brazil has an internal regulation, so it will only take boats that are top16 in the worlds. We still have to see if our NOC will comply to that or push to send all boats.
But should the points not be doubled for last race .....surely if the medal race points gets doubled so should the final race for non medal race .... if that is the case then the scoring above does not hold good
No, only the medal race doubles the points.
It happened the same thing with the women's ilca 6 wc a few weeks ago!
So, if i haven't made any mistake, taking into account the discard, Guatemala, Montenegro, Chile and Denmark already secured the quotas. So Brazil and Argentina get the reallocated continental ones.

It has been said for the past two years that she would probably not be able to compete at the 2024 Olympics because our Olympic committee needed to "agree" to the switch or something. I'm not familiar with this process but it seems that as long as she doesn't have our approval, she will have to wait until Los Angeles 2028. The president of our Olympic committee said that they are not going to help her compete for another country.
Of course there is still time for her to qualify as a Greek athlete and compete at the Olympics if she qualifies in one of the upcoming regattas under our flag, and our Olympic committee has made it clear that they will "support" her if she chooses to do so, but she has made it clear that she would rather skip these Olympics than compete for Greece.
FYI she has had issues since 2017 with our sailing federation and after the Tokyo Olympics she said she had enough.
but so what happens to her 2023 quota?
It stays in Portugal?
Or if she wants to compete for Greece, can go to Greece?
Or would it go to Finland's Monika Mikkola, 25th at the World?
Or Last chance regatta?
I think that they arent allowed to compete in athletics, but are in swimming.
According to this profile, the nationality of the Bulgarian athlete was challenged, since she is Russian.
Also, Vasileia Karachaliou was denied change of nationality by the Greek Olympic Committee President, so not sure what this means. Does Greece or Portugal keep her quota?
Since was given the ILCA 7 quota (I still think it's a mistake) then may still get the ILCA 6 reallocated quota.
I was thinking about this...
So far only Fiji media has published this? Perhaps the Fiji Sailing Federation and athletes don't know the rules or they are trying to put forward the news. I will try to contact World Sailing regarding this (has someone already tried?) but I don't think they would respond...
Can't find no one from Kuwait on the entry list, I guess she has withdrew?
And Switzeerland already has a quota through the WC.

are also eligible to win a quota since the 2024 Worlds have a higher priority. Should they qualify here then their continental quota will be reallocated.
Thailand also is eligible.
So, if my count is right 45 athletes from 29 countries battling for the 7 quotas.
