Not these days... and in a few days there will be the Oceania Championships. The ranking will close on March 25th.

Have to say that's brutally unfair in the relay scenario

In the sense it was the last relay race for qualification - there's two more individual races so it's not quite so bad?

To be fair, all of the nations have competed in at least 7 qualifying events so they all have 5 scores to carry forward - it's always risky if you are going to rely on the last event to get the points for qualifying. 

 

In theory, World Triathlon could cite force majeure and arrange to add a mixed relay event at either Yokohama or Cagliari but it would complicate their qualification procedure.

Do we know the qualified teams from the mixed team relay ranking?

Not officially, but the rankings (https://www.triathlon.org/rankings/mixed_relay_olympic_qualification) were updated march 18 and there hasn't been a relay event since. So, I think we can say the split will be below and above (given the first three already qualified).
