That’s.. a lot. Rowing programme seriously paying off.

here we go again...

 

that bunch of idiots managing the Italian Rowing team tried for the billionth time to pursue the dream of having a competitive Eight and they missed out once again

 

but what's even worse, they blew many qualification chances in doing that and therefore, despite a record that might look very good on average, we're now approaching the moment that many (myself in first place) feared: the lowest point ever in the glorious history of the sport

 

I'm officially disgusted by our officials, coaches and also by many athletes, who did show a really bad attitude and lack of fighting spirit since the preliminary heats

They'll all add to the totals in the B finals. Some young crews improving and may be competitive next year

So my hit rate on finalists was 63/84 which is 75%. Of the 72 boats that have secured qualification at this point 11 weren't ranked in a qualifying position although positively no nation had multiple boats fall into this category which there wasn't any fundamental flaws with my rankings. 61/72 (84.7%) in terms of boats qualified at this point is probably a little dissapointing given that the last few qualifying spots are likely to be more volatile. There are gauranteed to be at least 8 more boats that werent ranked in a qualifying position that will qualify. Therefore the absolute best case scenario for my rankings would be a hit rate of 95/114 (83.3%). My target was 80% so I will probably need to get very lucky to hit that.

Germany only had 7 boats in Tokyo as well and they still have 6 chances to qualify here in B-finals + A-final in M8+.
I see good chances to qualify in W1x, M2x and medium chances for M8+, LM2x and W4x, so they could end up with 5-6 quotas  in the end which is more or less identical to Tokyo (one boat qualified in Lucern last time).
