Styrka 206 Posted September 7, 2023 #201 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Disastrous championships for for the moment, with maybe only one boat that will get a quota. For the moment, no plausible explanations from the federation. The two Lightweight boats were contenders for the podium, and here we are now with the men eliminated and the women in difficulty for the last quota in Final B.

W4x surely would have chances to qualify. But lane 5... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like we have been saying that across multiple sport events - track cycling, athletics and now rowing. It's getting increasingly difficult to see where the projected 31 gold medals are going to come from. Styrka and Josh 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dodge 1,024 Posted September 7, 2023 #206 Share Posted September 7, 2023 A little too much is being made of the lanes IMO. The best crews had the best lanes. The top 3 were more than likely coming form those lanes regardless of weather. Instead of the usual 2-5, it was 1-4. Josh and Nickyc707 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very frustrating that nobody has published their full breakdown to see what they were thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makedonas 2,127 Posted September 7, 2023 #210 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Disaster for Greece yet again Our W2- finished 4th in their SF, which is sad, but they really SHOULD get a quota here. Nothing has indicated that they will finish last in Final B, so I'm not too concerned about them but you never know. Our LW2X will probably have to try again next year, as it will be very difficult for them to win Final B especially from Lane 5. In the end it looks like we will only qualify M1X and W2- from here, which is very disappointing as we were expecting to have 4-5 crews to qualify. LM2X and LW2X really let us down...
