As expected results.... 

 

Had Sola missed one less in sprint she'd have been on podium , pretty quick today, hopefully in mass start

For the relay, the loss of Ingrid would of course be extremely bitter, but that looked really bad. With her, Norway would be the clear gold favorite. Sweden is currently clear on silver and possibly Russia for bronze. For the German women, the skiing times are not right at all anymore, even if the results were ok today, the skiing times were weak. And the big favorites from France before the Games, I do not trust a medal, Bescond was really weak again today, they are simply not in shape.

What an exciting race ... if IOC would be remotely sensible, they would take the pursuit off the program. This event makes zero sense.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

IBU is working on different formats for Super Sprint I just hope it replaces this event where medals are based on performance of some other event

The individual looks to be the first event to be recovery/replaced unfortunately..

People really have a cloudy judgement today, if they think Pursuit is going anywhere. It's a prime discipline in IBU's portfolio, as it brings head-to-head racing and is TV time perfection.

I think the best solution is to view sprint+pursuit as a single event. Sprint as qualification race open for all. And pursuit as medal race.

 

Maybe make sprint shorter like 6km for women and 7,5km for men?

 

Ok. Today race was semi-interesting (but only if you watch only a fight for gold, fight for top10 was full of ups and downs.), but there were a lot of exciting pursuits in the past/WC.

    • I love that it is more straightforward in relation to the number of quotas and does not allow possible problems as it was in Tokyo and Paris.
    • I love the judo qualification system, for me is the best in all disciplines. It combines a strong circuit, and it allows 100 or so countries to participate in.   So, maybe, if UWW does its job properly, it will be a good thing.
    • China Media Group (CMG) will broadcast all 116 gold medal events of the Milan Winter Olympics live on CCTV-1, CCTV-5, CCTV-5+ and CCTV-16. It will also use technologies such as 4K/8K ultra-high definition to enhance the viewing experience. Live broadcasts of all events will be carried out from 16:00 Beijing time to 06:00 the next day.
    • The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.
    • Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....     
    • The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.  
    • The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR
    • That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.
    • I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird  
    • So probably: Men Oceania: Americas: Africa: Asia: One of  Europe: One of Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (probably not)  and whichever countries don’t qualify from Asian Games.  Universality: ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of above.  Universality: ?    is safe with two quotas between  it’ll be tough for whoever misses out of those three.   nevermind ,
