Goggia before her last injuries in period: 2022/2024, would have fought for gold even on this course. Unfortunately, another accidents have taken their health and she is no longer the same skier she was before. Throughout the current season, Goggia has been at a lower level in the downhill than Brignone, which was once unthinkable. Apart from Goggia, Brignone couldn't do anything yesterday and Delago and Pirovano aren`t currently at medal level.
Anyhow, turns out in the junior relay you're actually not taken out of the race when lapped, well fuck
As entirely expected, Brazil's opening man lost some time on Greece's opening man, but as also expected, Brazil's first girl destroyed the first Greek girl. I had expected them to be long lapped by then, which would be excellent, because then Brazil would get a position ahead of Greece and so a few more points. However, apparently everyone goes all the way, and the second Greek guy is likely to put the second Brazilian guy behind...hopefully not too far, because the last Brazilian girl should be better than the last Greek girl. It's a whole thing
Not helping Brazil that Lithuania is doing quite well, but the good thing is Lithuania isn't in the U23 relay and Brazil is. Strangely will do so without Manex Silva though, who is by a massive margin their best guy, and could have gotten them a few extra points which Brazil desperately needs in the ranking.
Edit:
Yeah, here we go with the second guys. Left is at the 2nd exchange, right is at 1.75km in their 5km race.....goodbye.
Including biathlon? They have their IBU Qualifying Points list public, but in their own results system, from which you can't download or even copy anything, so taking away all of the nations that qualify via the nations cup is a manual thing and takes forever.... (instead of if they at least had a CSV format or something, so you could filter those out easily).
China got rid of all the naturalized players from Canada and the US, so this is no surprise. With them on board, they were on equal lovel with Japan. Without foreign recruitment the Chinese team is worse than Slovakia or Holland.
Yes, I do plan on making qualification posts for other sports as we get closer to the qualification deadlines. Mostly for rankings lists that aren't made public by the sports federations.
For now, you can find the biathlon rankings here and olympic allocation lists for freestyle skiing and snowboarding here
Fun fact. is super close of having both M & W teams in Milano despite failing to qualify in both of them
That will be super weird the chances that it will happen are like 75 % right now I would say
If Russia will not be eligible to play (which let be reall, we all know will not be) France will qualify as LL for the Men Tournament and if today vs match will not finish at least in Overtime and/or will not make a miracle by beating France will qualify also as LL for the womens tournament as well. Imagine that luck
