Athletics at the European Games 2023

Right people, let's make it interesting.

I've went trhough everyone's SB/PB in Division II and that is how the simulated score looks like for Div2 (please note relkays are not included as neraly impossible to get the accurate prediciton rankings):

 

	427
	407
	377
	344
	313
	302
	296
	290
	278
	277
	272
	268
	242
	217
	181
	128

So we are looking into  and  easily qualifying to Div 1, with  and  fighting for last qualifying spot.

 looks very safe to remain in Div2

 and  highly likely to get relegated (especially when not competing in all events), with  and  fighting for survival!

Also - simulated rankings of day 1:

 

	149
	128
	116
	108
	107
	101
	99
	96
	95
	82
	80
	79
	68
	68
	65
	53

This will look completely different when comparing to all included events,  will get some false hope to qualify, while  and  might get upset with rankings after first day.

Good morning for Ireland. Should ease to promotion now. Delighted to see 19 year old Nicola Tuthill continue to improve in the hammer. She could be a contender in a few years

Huh, the Hungarian federation said that our target is a midtable finish. I guess they didn't calculate what the other teams are capable of on paper. Plus we are sending the A-team, other nations might have some missing talent.

Thats bizarre, maybe they didn't want to overhype it and just under promised just in case... but even then, the only evets were Hungarian's SB is not amongst top5 is Men's5000m, men's pole vault, men's shot put, women's high jump and women's triple jump... We shall see how close Hungarians are to their season performances shortly, but I think you guys have the favourites at the moment.

Seems there's no broadcast of women's shot put and women's hammer throw?

Yep, it started. I got scared as if you look at the programme on https://europeangames.tv it only mentions stream starting with Women's 400m

Interesting fact: in the panning shot of the stadium, you can see more people outside of the stadium on the benches or strolling around than inside.... 0 spectators again

Well, the stadium is located within a huge Silesian Park so there will always be a lot of people outside in the summer   Those prople will probably come when Division I rolls along during the weekend.
