Speed Skating at the Winter Olympic Games Beijing 2022

Not taking the quotas into account for the distances that will be skated tonight, we have a total of 25 countries already secured of at least one quota:

 

:ARG :AUT :BEL :BLR :CAN :CHN :CZE :DEN :GBR :GER :ITA :JPN :KAZ :KOR :LAT :NED :NOR :NZL :POL :ROC :ROU :SUI :SWE :TPE :USA 

 

In 2018, 29 different countries competed. Differences so far:

 

  • No participation in 2018, but quota secured for 2022: :ARG :GBR 
  • Participated in 2018, no quota secured for 2022 (yet): :AUS :COL :EST :FIN :FRA :HUN  

 

:ARG will send its first ever skater to the Olympics (women's 500m) and no skater from :GBR had qualified since 1992 and now they qualified both a male and female speed skater. :cheer:

 

:EST Marten Liiv will almost certainly qualify tonight for both men's 500 and 1.000m, so Estonia will be the 26th country added to the list.

 

:FRA Loubineaud is now 2nd reserve on the men's 5.000m, 3rd on the men's 10.000m and 4th on the men's mass start. :wall:

 

No reasonable hope for any of the other countries to qualify. I'm most disappointed by :FIN. They also don't have any talents coming up in the junior circuit. 

Oh what a surprise :) See you in 4 years (no).

Nooooo! :wall:

 

He also got disqualified on Friday. 

Hoping he appeals the DQ if there is grounds for it... what tough luck is this damn.

It's very unlikely :NZL will qualify a team pursuit team on points, unless they finish and one of the following teams does not finish or gets disqualified: :NED :NOR :USA :CAN :ITA 

 

They will most likely not qualify on time.

 

It would be a very lucky qualification because they get a lot of points just by starting in the A group. They should have been demoted to the B group twice, had it not been for the disqualification of the Russian team during World Cup 1 (for a very stupid reason btw), or the fall of the Japanese team last week. :wacko:
