Viki is convinced she qualified, let´s hope she is not wrong :) so it looks then for a return of the country in the sport at the Olympics after missing PyeongChang for ineligibility of start of our pilot (naturalized czech...Jesus christ how stupidly this sounds lol)

One day left with just a couple of things left to decide; In the Women's can Andreutti pull off a miracle (top 6) and catch Boch for the last quota in the 2s, GER and CAN are in with 3, USA, CHN, RUS, SUI are in with 2, then AUT, ROU, AUS, GBR, BEL are in with 1.  The monobob has USA,GER,CAN,CHN in with 2 and then RUS, AUS, SUI, ROU, AUT, FRA, NED, KOR, SVK, JAM, UKR, ITA.  Nigerian just missed a last day miracle.

 

The 4man has all the countries decided but down to the wire between RUS and CAN for 3 sleds, and ITA, GBR, and (can Cipulis pull off a miracle) maybe LAT for the last spot with 2 sleds.

These should be the Two-Man quotas:

 

3 sleds:

 

:CAN Canada

:GER Germany

 

2 sleds:

 

:AUT Austria

:CHN China

:LAT Latvia

:ROC ROC

:KOR South Korea

:SUI Switzerland

:USA United States

 

1 sled:

 

:BRA Brazil

:CZE Czechia

:FRA France

:GBR Great Britain

:ITA Italy

:JAM Jamaica

:MON Monaco

:NED Netherlands

:ROU Romania

:TTO Trinidad and Tobago

 

:TTO Trinidad and Tobago becomes the 91st NOC to qualify. Netherlands should reject the quota which means that :ISR Israel would get the last spot. :CRO Croatia would be the first reserve.

Looks right to me.  I crunched the numbers and now all Canada has to do to get a 3rd sled in the 4-man is have Spring finish in the top 20 (he needs 66 points).  The russians could have made it interesting by switching up their drivers on the last weekend and giving Stulnev a WC start. Deen needs to outscore Variola by 102 for the last spot with 2 sleds (Variola's score improves if he finishes above 25th).

And that's a wrap for the bobsleigh quotas

 

Four-Man

 

3 sleds:

 

:CAN Canada, :GER Germany

 

2 sleds:

 

:AUT Austria, :CHN China, :ITA Italy, :ROC ROC, :KOR South Korea, :SUI Switzerland, :USA United States

 

1 sled:

 

:BRA Brazil, :CZE Czechia, :FRA France, :GBR Great Britain, :JAM Jamaica, :LAT Latvia, :NED Netherlands, :ROU Romania

 

As usual, :CRO Croatia is the first reserve but should get a quota since the Netherlands will probably reject. :AUS Australia is the 2nd reserve.

 

Women's Monobob:

 

2 sleds:

 

:CAN Canada, :CHN China, :GER Germany, :USA United States

 

1 sled:

 

:AUS, Australia, :AUT Austria, :FRA France, :ITA Italy, :JAM Jamaica, :NED Netherlands, :ROU Romania, :ROC ROC, :SVK Slovakia, :KOR South Korea, :SUI Switzerland, :UKR Ukraine

 

Brazil loses their monobob quota. They're the second reserve with Nigeria being the first reserve.

 

Two-Woman

 

3 sleds:

 

:CAN Canada, :GER Germany

 

2 sleds:

 

:CHN China, :ROC ROC, :SUI Switzerland, :USA United States

 

1 sled:

 

:AUS Australia, :AUT Austria, :BEL Belgium, :FRA France, :GBR Great Britain, :ROU Romania

 

Unfortunately, it looks like Ashleigh Werner testing positive for COVID caused Australia to lose their second sled. Belgium kicks Jamaica out of a two-woman quota.

Brazil loses their monobob quota. They're the first reserve with Nigeria being the second reserve.

 

 

From Olympic Qualification system IBSF: ,,If there are places still available for reallocation, only NOCs which do not already have a qualified team by the end of the qualification period will be considered".

 

So first reserve is Nigeria nad second Poland.

Actually Brazil and Nigeria are tied and the tie-breaker is the single best result; Nigeria 120, Brazil 88.

So :ISR could have an athlete in bobsleigh?

Yes. I believe Israel is currently the first reserve in the two-man event but Netherlands will likely reject their quota because they haven't met their own qualification standards.

    • Today is a day without Italians in the leads positions. I`m worried that they are not trying to revive this our sprint. There is only one Bosa and he is old. Pergher is young but she is also only one. It is a pity. After the Olympics they will probably 100% give up on the entire sprint. Our medal bag in Cortina will depend 90% on Ghiotto, just like it did on Fabris in Turin 2006. If Ghiotto will be in goodshape, he can even win 2 individual golds + a team medal. If not, it will be a flop. Apart from him, only Lollobrigida can compete in the mass start and possibly Giovannini in the men's mass start.

    • Yes, he is ones of the first supporters of Milei, owner of one of the most important stock market of Argentina (Bull market), he was peronist and for "unknown reasons" start to be libertarian.   Even being libertarian in my case, i have to admit that him is one of the dumbest of "Milei supporters" and a clown when  he is in TV, he made me feel  embarrassed in many occasions.   Camila Giorgi being with him is.......inconceivable.
