Equestrian FEI Eventing & Driving World Championships 2022


Recommended Posts

Pratoni slide is not being shown at all because for some reason the TV director *has to* show every rider finishing in live. Guess he does not know how to add in replays.

 

So much for the most exciting fence of the course. It has already caused problems and we have seen none of it.

 

Water complex hasn't been shown at all too... Just the straightforward galloping obstacles.

:SUI Minder eliminated. Didn't see what happened exactly but parted company with Toblerone.

 

Looked great early on but got visibly fatigued.

I don't know if the Swedish TV (SVT) have a personalized direction, but I turned my tv on 3 minutes ago and they already showed Monica Spencer at the water complex and Kitajima at the Slide...:rolleyes:

 

hope that the international feed doesn't have a typical italian football-only director...:facepalm:

It has improved but there are still no replays which you need for cross-country.

 

Will Coleman was the fastest so far but his finish was not shown, live or taped.

With the first line riders for the team event all completed, Switzerland lose one of their overnight counters with the elimination of Minder. That will possibly help Team Italy move closer to a qualifying spot in the top 7. France's Astier Nicolas and Canada's Haley Awad likely to become a drop scores for their respective teams. 

 

A clear round for Ros Canter means GBR have a good fall back should anything go wrong for their overnight counters.

Fouuad Mirza's tack is flying all over the course. Already dropped his bib, and now something else is got untacked behind. :lol:

Vitkauskas got awarded a refusal, but it could be worth an appeal to see if the horse really stepped backwards on the fence in hand.

 

Pitty for Lithuania if the penalties stay, since this should have been the most competitive stage for Vitkauskas.

 

Edit: Another refusal. :facepalm: He retires, back to the drawing board.

Although they didn't show it for Auffarth, I think that if a ride wants to go clear they need to exit the water section with about 2 minutes remaining. Although this may be irrelevant if they don't show it on TV.

    • 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 , 
    • The rankings look likely to give two spots each in the men's side to Egypt (2nd athlete at 3) and GB (second athlete at 9). the nearest contender after that is France and both Egypt and GB have plenty of contenders after their respective number 2 but before France's umber 2   Women's side looks a bit more of a battle, with Egypt again likely to provide 2, and then a fight between USA, GBR and BEL for the other lucky double spot. That said, so dominant are the Egyptians, Americans and Brits, that failing to find all the contenders in the top 50 is entirely plausible, possibly opening a third 'double' spot.
    • I'd done my final revisions on my prediction spreadsheets.. and I'm sticking with 26 for Canada.    Take it to the bank! (But don't sign anything)
