I always wondered why some of those athletes dont use penalties like for example Coleman used missed tests? Couldnt they just start running to close a gap? Even if they would get a penalty, nothing would really happen unless they get 3 penalties?

 

they would get a direct red card (the president of the jury can watch the replays and give that sanction, if needed)...it already happened a few times, especially in some races gone down to the sprint finish...

Stano :bye:

 

unbelievable and shameful political decision...he was a locked silver medallist, but someone decided that he shouldn't get what he deserved...

if he was to be given a single penalty, Karlstrom and Mizinov should have DQed even before they started the competition...:facepalm:

Nice race :)Clearly the best and most fair race walk event of Doha 2019. I really enjoyed it.

 

Hard Luck Pintado. Next time Brian, maybe in Tokyo hopefully

 

really?

to me it was the most shameful race of the year (youth and junior competitions included) in terms of judging...:facepalm:

Good to know, of course that doesnt change the fact that race walking shouldnt be an olympic sport. I guess getting rid of race walking wont be possible thanks to the influence of China.

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

Why should Karlström and Mizinov been DQed before the start of competition? What did they do?

I said the best Doha 2019 Race Walk event, and it was. 100% better and more fair than the 50km crap we had last weekend. Sorry. This is a fact. That last Saturdays 50km shouldn´t be even considered as valable race. because it had nothing with race walk. In comparison to this, yesterdays 20km was one brilliant jewel.

    • Earlier today, Taiwan beat the USA    Of course it's car from the best US tram but it's still a big deal for Taiwanese baseball
    • And even here we lose to France? I really don't know what's the point of organizing the Olympics if you can't make progress in practically any sport. France has the Olympics in 2030 and there they will definitely prepare 100%, just like for Paris. We can't do that. It's obvious that in ski jumping we have no chance of winning medals, but decency dictates that we should at least win here with a France like that.
    • There is no snow in Lillehammer 
    • Finally the ski jumping season begins 11 teams in the (real) mixed team competition, no Switzerland.
    • Most of our athletes are constantly bothered by something: the pressure to qualify, the miss of pressure when they have already qualified, etc. It's the same in football: at the beginning of the season they are a poor form becouse of a little played and at the end of the season they are tired. They are always looking for excuses. A real champion always plays at a high level, like Sinner, and doesn`t look for 1000 excuses for his poor performance.
    • Think it is mentally difficult for the two teams with the Olympic place guaranteed and the pressure off, whereas everyone else is absolutely playing at 110%.  I'm sure things will be better once they get to Milan. 
    • There's no point in cheating, these were terrible European Championships for us. Retronaz out of form, Constantini with a huge number of big mistakes. Only illness can excuse it... We've probably lost the last 10 matches with Switzerland... It looks like Constantini had the tournament of her life in mixed doubles in 2022 in Beijing and she will never reach this level again.
    • What good is it to us if we took 4th place and lost an important match? If Constantini was sick, I forgive her, but I'm afraid that the Italian team will not exceed a certain level. Yes, they have made progress since 2022, but they lack that one decisive step to become a class team. Here we lost all important matches with teams at our/higher level: Sui x2, Sco x2, Swe. We only won with the one we were supposed to win with. I don't believe in a medal for this team in Cortina. After 2022, it seemed that Constantini could dominate women's curling, but it didn't happen that way. After Sinner's recent successes, I opened my eyes a bit and started to demand more from our athletes, coaches, and officials. I have no intention of being satisfied with 4th place, because with this approach, you won't achieve anything great.
    • play their best, but only get 1, so  get bronze 6-4!  
    • Oh dear, once again a 50% shot from Constantini when she needed 100%.   blank the end & go into the 10th with the Hammer of Thor.
