and now we also recorded the worst disappointment among the few boats that at least qualified to the Games :facepalm: :hairpull:

 

so, we finish this championship with 4 OQP and 2 medals (no gold)...worse than the most pessimistic preview :bones: :zip:

To be fair you do have 3 golds in the non-Olympic classes and Italy remains the top lightweight nation, it just didn't quite come together for the Olympic boats.

Is 6th not the worst outcome?

I think it means they wont be eligible for the Pan-Am continental qualifier so miss out on possible extra quotas.

No, see the discussion above. As 6th with no quota place from the women's 8th Canada could have participated in the American qualifier. ;)

Once again we witness the reason why the eights are the iconic race of rowing and will always be. You can't buy magic

If the lights light up exactly at the correct moment, he was definitely first, since his light went on first. Not sure if those lights are 100% accurate though?

Well technically yes, but Italy is so far behind the rest of the field, that anything other than a 6th would've been a massive surprise. Also, as @Rafa Maciel said, if Canada failed to qualify a boat here, we would be eligible for the Continental Qualifiers (and likely two extra quotas).

Another 4th place for Ntouskos. Perhaps he is thinking of switching citizenship to Canada? :lol:

Anything fishy about the winner? 😃

11 boats qualified for the Olympic Games, it's absolutely fantastic, 44 athletes out of a possible 45. Rowing is by far the number 1 sport in Romania, I hope for some very good Olympic Games from the Romanian rowers. Good for them.:bowdown:

do you want to try  qualify someone in men's single?

    • I won't write about injuries (Fede) and non-sporting matters (Colturi), but the fact is that Italy has its worst start to the season in alpine skiing in over 10 years... Just one victory, and podiums- if any, they're mostly 3 places. We're also not leading in any of the season standings, no in the women's or men's categories. This isn't be it should be in an Olympic year in your country, where you're having your worst season in many years.
    • Plaisier blew 3 match darts and Ratajski comes back to win!    
    • Yes, she was unlucky, but it could just as easily have happened during some training, like with Gut, etc. Brignone has been essentially injury-free throughout her long career, which is very rare in this sport. It's unfortunate that this happened after her best season ever and just 1 year before the Olympic Games in home, when she just missing of win the Olympic gold medal in her great career. With the gold in Cortina, she would have become a legend of Italian skiing, on par with Tomba. Now she's still the best Italian woman in history, but the miss of Olympic gold will likely haunt her for the rest of her life. 
    • It sad to see this season, as I remember, that Fede last year was winning everywhere, when she competed and finished and now we haven't even managed a single podium in the giant slalom, and it'll probably stay that way until the end of the season. Without Fede and Bassino, unfortunately, we're out of good cards in this event. For me Goggia should probably skip the giant slalom at all, becouse she has no chance of a podium and she risks further injuries. If even Goggia finish 8th or 10th? What difference does it make? If she couldn't get a podium finish today with so many DNFs at the top skiers, she probably never do. Della Mea is OK this year, but let's be honest, she's not World Cup podium material. Overall, it's a sad picture, and we have a 0% chance of anything in Cortina unless a miracle happens in Brignone return.   We have two chances for Goggia in DH and SG + maybe a dark horse in Pirovano/Curtoni in SG. That's all. In technical events, we have a 0% chance for medal and that's sad. Our federation also lost Colturi in this situation... In any normal country, the head of such a federation should be dismissed for disciplinary reasons and this case should be investigated by the minister, or even the prime minister, but not in Italy...
    • Mikaela Shiffrin  off the podium today (Edit: Oops...I thought this was slalom, not Giant Slalom.).  Nina Astner  entered the 2nd run in 30th place, but had the best second run, jumping up 18 places to 12th.
    • Maryna Gąsienica-Daniel with a 5th place PB in Semmering GS! 
    • Today RDC will defeat Senegal  and Tunisia 0-0 Nigeria
