Harsh rules. 

First group had slowest time, probably one of those 3 teams will miss Paris.

 

One of two. Australia qualifies. I do think however that we'll be better than at least 2 more boats in the final.

So, here's where we stand in men's K4.

 

                will fight for 7 spots, 1 boat will miss Paris.

 

 already qualified as the only non-European boat in the A final.

 

  v   will fight for the Asian quota in the B final.

 

 qualified as the only American boat in the Top18. 

France still has a chance of bringing back quotas, because the K4 is over?

Yeah, my guess is that Poland is the weakest European boat in the final. But you can never know in K4.

I have to admit, I still don't see why there has to be continental representation at the Olympics across every boat class - it doesn't really do anything to expand the sport as Oceania quotas always go to Australia or New Zealand and the American ones, although spread out more, still tend to be won by the bigger nations.  

Quite frankly Oceania really is only 2 countries. Also, the Olympics is a worldwide event not the European Benefit Games. The Olympics has been dominated no matter what sport or event it is by the Northern Hemisphere and that is primarily not down to purely athletic talent but geography. Example, accessibility. 90% of all World Championships seem to be in the NH particularly Europe. The sports that are in the Olympics one could argue are mainly European but that's purely down to economics and politics.

What do you mean by bringing back the quotas?

France sadly lost all chances for M K4 500 m quota

yes I know for the K4, but we have a chance of qualifying the K2 W and M and the C2 M.. because frankly our level is disastrous

Technically you do have chances to qualify in C1/C2/K1/K2. In reality, we will see what happens when you will focus on K2 to salvage your quota chances.
